I love this. While doing research on Heart for Africa for the new Thursday blog post, Liz pulled together the information below to help give you an example of the real-life crisis that's happening as you read. Statistically, it's real. But when you see it with your own eyes, it's the truth.

While we leave taps running to brush our teeth, there is a heartbreaking need for clean water in the world. More than 1 billion people worldwide do not have access to safe water. The health and economic impacts are staggering. In Africa alone, people spend roughly 40 billion hours every year just walking for water. The need is apparent when you realize how many non-profit groups have made clean, safe water their mission. Humanité donates 5% of profits to Heart For Africa a non-profit who's mission includes, but is not limited to, helping bring clean water to those in need (an additional 5% is donated to the local New Century Scholars program) Check out this link for more information on a water project going on right now.
