Make a Difference to Global Water Crisis
Clean and safe water might be a common element of our lives, but there are still 1 billion people who don’t have access to this. Clean water is still one of the biggest crises of today! It’s a human’s primary need. Without it, everything becomes a risk factor: poverty, education, health and a big issue for women and children. Because of contaminated water sources, every 2 minutes, a child dies.
It is also a huge challenge for women. The average woman in rural Africa walks 6 kilometers every day to haul 40 pounds of water, and in the end, the water isn’t even clean. The long walk for water is full of dangers; wild animals attack poor souls on the way to water, sometimes children are kidnapped and don’t have time to go to school.

Stages of Building a Water Well
Stage 1: Assessing the Location and Identifying the Need
At Time to Help, our journey to bring clean water to communities begins with a thorough assessment of the location. This crucial first step involves our dedicated team conducting on-site evaluations to understand the geographical and environmental factors of the proposed well site. We engage with local communities to understand their specific needs and the challenges they face in accessing clean water.
How do we spend your donation?
Rest assured that 90% of your donation will go directly towards supporting the project and making a positive impact. In addition, the remaining 10% will be invested in our fundraising efforts, allowing us to reach even more people and make an even greater impact.

FAQ
Water scarcity refers to the lack of sufficient available water resources to meet the water usage demands within a region. It can result from physical water shortages and an inability to access water due to socio-economic reasons. Water scarcity can have dire consequences, impacting agriculture, health, and livelihoods. It can lead to food shortages, hinder economic growth, and even conflict over dwindling resources. Additionally, water scarcity exacerbates the challenges of vulnerable populations, particularly women and children, who often bear the primary responsibility for water collection. As the global population grows and climate change affects water availability in many regions, addressing water scarcity becomes increasingly crucial for sustainable development and well-being.
