Give Clean Water to Kids in Africa

Splash is working hard to ensure kids living in urban poverty have clean water, clean hands, and clean toilets in eight different countries. In Ethiopia, we’re 15% complete towards our target goal, so that means 2018 is a critical year to make big strides as we look to bring sustainable water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) programs to all 500 kindergarten and primary schools in Addis Ababa by 2025

In this New Year, we're celebrating the 1,510 new kids Splash brought clean water, clean hands, clean toilets, and big smiles to in Addis Ababa in 2017. Thank you for being part of this success!

Today in Addis Ababa, Splash is serving clean water to over 57,194 children in 31 schools, 8 orphanages, 6 shelters and 2 hospitals, and we're just getting started! Splash has also lead hygiene education events and programs where 56,743 kids have participated. Our Global Handwashing Day celebration was even broadcasted on public television! This brought handwashing education to millions of TVs across the country, hopefully spreading the message of the importance of handwashing. 

Splash continues to collaborate with the Addis Ababa Education Bureau and other regional actors to strengthen partnerships and align goals with existing government priorities, all while targeting the largest number of children in the neediest areas. It's taken a lot of hard work and a lot of generous people, but we are making steady progress toward our goal of 100% coverage in Addis Ababa.

As a donor, you can be assured that Splash will continue to work tirelessly until every child in every school in Addis Ababa has safe water, clean toilets, and hygiene education.  

Thank you and Happy New Year!
