I’ve now walked in hundreds of villages with and without access to clean drinking water. I’ve seen what it means for women to literally walk over five hours every single day to get water that makes their kids sick. I’ve seen children drinking from swamps, ponds, and rivers that you or I wouldn’t let our dogs drink from that are filled with leeches and disease.
