Some Good News

Hello Everyone,

We were sent this article from Fix The News on a report from WHO/UNICEF report on water, sanitation and hygiene. 

Before you read it we would like to thank everyone who has ever been a part of KIDS as a donor, volunteer or in any way at all. You have been part of a change for the good in KIDS quest to bring water, sanitation and hygiene to as many as we can.

Phew, some good news for a change.

The article reads,

The change since 2000 is staggering. Back then, only two-thirds of humanity could drink safe water; today it’s three-quarters, despite the world’s population growing by two billion. During the same time, sanitation has gone from being accessible to less than half of the world to nearly 60%, and basic handwashing has gone from 59% to 80% of the global population

The scale of this is almost impossible to get your head around. We are talking about billions of lives altered in the most tangible of ways: homes with taps, schools with toilets, clinics where soap and water are always available. Progress like this slips past unnoticed, hidden by the news cycle, but in the grand sweep of history it’s as big as anything gets. Those numbers represent real children playing in the streets instead of dying from some terrible disease, hundreds of millions of mothers spared the daily burden of carrying water, and countless communities freed to focus on more than just survival.

Our species has done something genuinely remarkable here, and it’s worth stopping for a moment to appreciate it.

Thank You Suzanne for making our day.
