    WATER!!!

    Simply put - the lack of safe drinking water is the primary cause of disease in the world today. Everyday almost 40,000 people die from causes directly related to contaminated water. And for those who survive, without good health, there is little chance for a normal and productive life. A surprising statistic to many is that contaminated water causes 80% of the health problems throughout the world.

    Organizations around the world have been joining efforts to face this issue but many of them have failed. Here are the most common reasons:
    • Improper equipment;
    • Personnel not properly trained to start;
    • No follow-on training for new personnel;
    • Inadequate logistical re-supply; or
    • A combination of the above.
