Why does Fair Future focus part of its activities on access to clean water? While we are, first and foremost, a medical organization?
Because clean water is essential not only to stay disease-free but also to maintain good health, Consuming contaminated water inevitably gives rise to various diseases that can be fatal, such as cholera, typhoid and hepatitis.
Fair Future sees a change in the habits of families who benefit from the Water Connections program. Without drilling deep wells here, families will not be able to access clean water and will have to keep walking for miles and hours to fetch dirty, unsanitary water. Most of the time, women and children are assigned to this exhausting task. Access to better health has always been the foundation’s primary mission, and healing people simply by giving them water is incredible for us. It is the only possible solution. We must continue to drill with our drilling machine.
