Sponsored: This Mother's Day, Honor Moms Worldwide

For women, the water crisis is personal, its impact immense. Every day around the world, women collectively spend 200 million work hours gathering clean water for their families. These are hours they cannot spend earning an income. Their children struggle with illness. This Mother’s Day alone, 4,000 mothers will lose a child to a preventable water-borne illness. You can help improve the quality of life for women and their families across the globe by helping women like Ranjana gain access to clean, safe water.

Through Water.org’s Mother’s Day card program, you can honor your mom and also honor another mother across the world. Send your mom or another important woman in your life an eCard and make a donation on their behalf. For every $25 donated to Water.org, one person can have access to clean water for life. Get started on your card here, and join Water.org to empower women to help their families and communities.
