More children die from these types of diseases than from Malaria and AIDS/HIV.
Proctor & Gamble created the Children's Safe Drinking Water Program to "focus on reducing illness and the number of deaths resulting from drinking contaminated water."
One small packet cleans 10 liters of water in under 30 minutes. This is so cool!
COVERGIRL has teamed up with the Children's Safe Drinking Water program and has launched a campaign to help more children get clean drinking water.
It is called Clean Makeup for Clean Water

I donated and feel so good about life right now. I, for one, take clean water for granted. Yes, we have our water storage, but that seems a bit unreal that we will actually ever need it for a prolonged amount of time. So, thank you, this is a great cause.
