Over 1.4 million children die every year, that’s one child every 20 seconds, from water borne diseases such as cholera, dysentery and diarrhoea, caused by either the lack of access to fresh water or polluted water.
Polluted water is the biggest killer of children under the age of 5 in the world for although we can survive a month without food; we can only survive 3 days without water. It is the very essence of our being.
Once again thank you for supporting World Travel Market’s official charity - Just a Drop and I look forward to welcoming you to World Travel Market.
