Clean Water Changes Lives
For every liter of Waiākea you buy, Waiākea donates 1 week of clean water to those in need in Malawi, Africa.
In 2014, 650 million people lacked access to clean water—about two times the population of the United States alone. Simultaneously, more than 2.3 billion people live without basic access to reliable clean, safe water from functioning water points and adequate sanitation.
As a result, every 20 seconds, a child dies from a water-related illness.6 It has become the fifth leading cause of death in Malawi, with younger generations at even greater risk – about 45% of water-borne disease-related death is in children under 5 years old. This has a huge impact on the wider social and economic development of Malawi, as children hold the key to the future.
