TRANSFORMING LIVES. IMPROVING HEALTH.
EKOBO x the WASH FOUNDATION
What is The WASH Foundation ?
The WASH Foundation is a nonprofit organization whose purpose is to improve the quality of life of women, children and communities worldwide by working with community-based organizations and country governments to provide them with enhanced access to safe water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH). Through its health and development programs – such as WASH-in-Schools, Women’s Microfinance, and Women’s Initiatives – the WASH Foundation is working to give sustainable and ongoing access to comprehensive WASH infrastructure and supplies, along with the long-term education necessary to change behaviors such as promoting exclusive breastfeeding and making a sustainable impact. Through their disaster relief efforts and refugee support, they also work to ensure all displaced populations, and those in crisis, have the WASH access they need to sustain and improve health.
THE IMPACT
The case for universal access to WASH is compelling. Studies have proven that access to safe drinking water can reduce childhood morbidity by 40% or more, while proper handwashing can reduce child deaths by 50% or more. School-based WASH programs can increase attendance by over 60%. And for every $1 invested in WASH programs, up to $46 is generated through increased productivity and workforce participation.
