We don’t tend to think about how easy it is to get fresh, clean water from a tap or a water dispenser. We’re so used to it that we almost take it for granted. But there are people around the world not as lucky as us. They don’t have clean water or have to walk a long way to get it. Luckily, there are charities set up that aim to help these people and supply them with a source of clean water.

How do water charities help communities?

Water charities do a number of things to help the communities they support. This may involve working with the local government to establish schemes that will help the community access clean water. It may also involve actively building clean water solutions for the community to access. Charities may also talk and campaign to governments to convince them to invest more in clean water solutions.

How can you help?

Any donation you can give, whether that’s one-off or on a regular basis, helps the charity towards their funding goals. These funds may go toward building a well or sanitation system for a community to use. If you’d like to raise more funds to donate to a charity, you could also organize a fundraiser to collect donations from friends and family.

Another option for many charities is to volunteer for them locally. Some charities, for example, have a local shop that raises money for the charity with every sale made. Places like these are always looking for volunteers.

How to choose the best charities to support

There are so many good charities out there, how do you know which ones to support. Unfortunately, there are also some charities that are less than transparent about where their funds go, so it’s important that you research a charity before donating to it, ensuring that they are trustworthy. Look into what they do and how they distribute their funds. Checking an independent charity reviewer will also help you make your mind up.

Here are a few water charities from the US and globally that help people around the world access clean water:
