World Vision is a global leader in working with rural healthcare facilities to teach infection prevention and establish access to handwashing stations and clean water on-site. This effort also helps ensure that the miracle of birth is a safe experience. WHO and UNICEF issued a call to provide clean water access, hand hygiene services, and sanitation improvements in healthcare facilities, and World Vision responded with a commitment larger than any other NGO: to reach 800 rural healthcare facilities serving 7.2 million people between 2019 and 2021. We delivered on this commitment by reaching 1,460 healthcare centers with clean water. We have now committed to reach a cumulative 2,000 healthcare facilities serving approximately 18 million people between 2019 and 2023. https://www.instagram.com/p/CqEPdCaS0BX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

What a weekend. Got to hang/run/be with my team/friends/framily. and completed my 9th straight @lamarathon . my legs are sore and i’m tired. But i still have to get up and take the kids to school and goto work and do all the things a monday brings. I think about the kids we run for. every day they are taking long walks to fetch water. And most times those long walks are for dirty, bacteria filled, disease carrying water. And regardless of if they’re tired from the previous day(s), they must go out and take that walk. By donating we can bring access to clean water to these kids! This is a crisis we can solve. Lets do it! http://teamworldvision.org/participant/rickey2 https://www.instagram.com/p/CqAcacOriGU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Based on the success in Rwanda, we now have finish-the-job plans for Zambia—where we will need $50 million from U.S. donors in order to reach 800,000 people, 350 schools, and 125 healthcare facilities with clean water by 2025—and Honduras, where we will need $60 million from U.S. donors to reach 650,000 people, 1,000 schools, and 125 healthcare facilities with clean water by 2027. In 2021 alone, we reached 3 million people with clean water, 2.4 million people with improved sanitation, and 3.6 million people with handwashing facilities. We also reached more than 400,000 people with emergency water and more than 500,000 students with clean water in their schools.

We reach one new person with lasting access to clean water for just $50 and can reach a community of 500 people for $25,000. take in this pic a little bit. notice all the kids out there. notice all the water jugs (jerry cans). notice that all these jugs are in a line. once the kids make the trek out to this now clean water source, they still have to wait while the 1-3 spouts of water fill each can before theirs. 1 can is usually not enough. so imagine after taking the journey to get water, waiting for it, and then taking the journey back home you have to immediately turn around and do it again. also, probably the least important part of the pic but i appreciate it, there are many logos on the top of that building, including World Vision which is the last logo. World Vision is committed to getting people water and partnering with how ever many it takes to do so. Life is more important than branding. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp288F8PLO9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Our track record shows that we can achieve our goal of reaching 50 million people with clean water. We hit the midpoint of the goal by reaching 25 million people with clean water between October 2015 and September 2022. We didn’t do this in places with good infrastructure and lots of available water, but instead we reached some of the most vulnerable people in the most fragile areas of the planet, including places like the deserts of Niger and Mali, war-torn areas of Sudan and Ethiopia, and the high hills of Honduras. #WorldWaterDay https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp0B-CHrnnG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

LA MARATHON 2015 was my 1st full marathon. been running @lamarathon ever since. In 2015, World Vision and our partners made a commitment to reach 50 million people with clean water by 2030—everyone, everywhere we worked based on our footprint at the time. #WorldWaterDay https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpx0r20JjnP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In 2015, World Vision and our partners made a commitment to reach 50 million people with clean water by 2030—everyone, everywhere we worked based on our footprint at the time. still committed, still going. #WorldWaterDay https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpxk7_Erjks/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

An independent study funded by the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation and conducted by the University of North Carolina Water Institute in the Greater Afram Plains region of Ghana in 2013 showed that nearly 80% of wells installed by World Vision were still functioning at high levels after nearly two decades. In contrast, previous studies have shown that 30% to 50% of non–World Vision-installed wells are not repaired when they inevitably break down. The reason for this high level of success is that we work with communities to ensure they own the water points and are able to fix them when they break down. World Vision’s work results in water that continues to flow. #WorldWaterDay (at GEMENA) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpwd8_7O4n5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

As a Christian, faith-based organization, World Vision is uniquely positioned to work with local religious leaders of all faiths as agents of change and advocates for the importance of clean water, improved sanitation, and healthy hygiene behaviors. In fact, 8,763 faith leaders participated in water, sanitation, and hygiene efforts in 2021. #WorldWaterDay https://www.instagram.com/p/CptuC9RL8MD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We have been able to obtain an additional $4 in leveraged funds for every $1 given to our Global Water Fund. This means that every $1 investment will have an impact of $5. For our Africa Water Fund, a $1 investment becomes $4.80 in impact. #WorldWaterDay https://www.instagram.com/p/CpqgMIsy0Fz/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We have 1,200 water, sanitation, and hygiene professionals working in 42 countries. Getting everyone access to clean water is the goal! and we’re getting there. #WorldWaterDay https://www.instagram.com/p/CpnallSJZK6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In our 2021–2025 Global WASH Business Plan, we’ve captured our organizational commitment to invest $1 billion over five years to extend the impact of our water, sanitation, and hygiene efforts across 42 countries. #WorldWaterDay https://www.instagram.com/p/CpksdY2rFMc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
