Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
We are a group of year 6 boys hoping to make a difference in the lives of those living through this pandemic in poverty. Hand-washing with soap when done correctly is critical in the fight against Coronavirus. We three boys have easy access to these resources whereas...
- "40 per cent of the world’s population, or 3 billion people, do not have a handwashing facility with water and soap at home. Nearly three quarters of the people in least developed countries lack basic handwashing facilities at home.
- 47 per cent of schools lacked a handwashing facility with water and soap affecting 900 million school-age children. Over one third of schools worldwide and half of schools in the least developed countries have no place for children to wash their hands at all.
- 16 per cent of healthcare facilities, or around 1 in 6, have no hygiene service, meaning they lack hand hygiene facilities where patients receive care, as well as soap and water at toilets." - Unicef UK website
Thanks for all the kind donations - however big or small! - Aaron, Kiran and Freddie
