Water is an ElementAND
A Right of Life !
• Why perform Surgical/Medical Missions when the children go home to contaminated water & die of dysentery and water borne disease?
• We spend $100- 350 per pediatric surgery, why not add $6-8 and have clean health as well?

Statistics
Over a billion people—20% of the world’s population—lack access to clean drinking water in the developing world and nearly 2.5 billion lack access to adequate sanitation services.
4,500 children die each day from a lack of safe drinking water. Every 15 seconds, a child under age 5 dies of water related illness.
