World Wisdom: Water Aid

Today's world wisdom post is more about a social issue than environmental - for us, at least. For people all over the world, though, clean water is a luxury. Water Aid is hoping to change that by efforts in Africa and Asia to make water safer and more easily accessible. 4000 children die each day due to illnesses from lack of clean drinking water. Over 1 million kids die each year from lack of water. So the need is great.

The site has a lot of resources, including a link to an online photo gallery where you can donate and receive photographic prints, classroom materials for teachers, games for kids and much more.
