"Today a child will die every eight seconds of water-related diseases." - World Health Organization
|
|
Water is essential for survival. A short period of time without this
liquid is a death sentence for any human being. However, to billions
of people around the world water itself can bring suffering, disease
and death. Over 25% of humanity is subjected daily to drinking polluted
or unsanitary water! There are also rural villages in such high altitudes
that their only source of water is what they collect when it rains.
They don't have the resources or equipment to collect and store it
properly.
Operation Blessing is not only breaking the cycle of water-borne
suffering with the drilling of new fresh water wells but with the
building of cisterns that attack the problems caused by the lack of
water as well. By drilling wells to uncontaminated water sources and
building cisterns men, women and children around the world experience
a new way of life as they have easy access to life-giving water.
