World Water Day

This Sunday is World Water Day. A contaminated water source will devastate the health of a community. Mercy Ships understands this need and seeks to integrate an appropriate response to this issue with our health care development activities in an effort to holistically develop the communities we interact with. During past field services, we have supervised well digging projects, latrine making projects, and taught workshops on water, sanitation, and hygiene. I look forward to being able to showcase an example of how we've achieved this goal in Benin later in the outreach. Today's post was intended to increase awareness of World Water Day and the fact that Mercy Ships is actively engaged in addressing this issue as well.
