Thirsty? (Matthew 25:31-40)

Did you know?

• More than 3.5 million people die each year from water-related disease; 84 percent are children. Nearly all deaths, 98 percent, occur in the developing world.
• Lack of access to clean water and sanitation kills children at a rate equivalent of a jumbo jet crashing every four hours.
• Lack of sanitation is the world’s biggest cause of infection.
• Millions of women and children spend several hours each day collecting water from distant, often polluted sources. This is time not spent working at an income-generating job, caring for family members, or attending school. 
• 443 million school days are lost each year due to water-related illness.

Want to help people around the world get safe drinking water and sanitation? Want a cool water bottle? Now you can do both! Matt Damon has one, and he is cool. I have one, and I am cool. Matt and I are cool together. You can be too! Living Water International is another great organization helping the one billion (that's 1/6 of the world population folks) without clean water for drinking and sanitation.
