Water Together Logo

Vox United has set up Water together as a simple way for you to help us provide clean, safe water to villages in sub-Saharan Africa. Since its inception in 2009, Vox has provided water to over 70,000 people in East and Southern Africa through Water Together initiatives. We have drilled wells, installed sand filters, and restored non-functioning wells in Mozambique and Tanzania.

We invite you to join our clean water initiatives this year by starting your own "DO IT [well]" fund-raising campaign. Just by doing what you love, you could help fund the restoration of fresh water wells in Africa.

Why water

  • Water born illnesses are the 2nd leading cause of death.
  • Of the 42,000 people who die each week from unsafe water, 90% are children.
  • Every 15 seconds a child dies from a water-related disease.
  • At any given moment, half of the world’s hospital beds are occupied by people who are suffering from water-related illnesses.
  • More than 80 percent of the world’s diseases can be attributed to unsafe water sources, sanitation and hygiene.

How Water Together works

Water Together is a Vox United campaign created specifically to address the water crisis through Well Drilling, Well Restoration and Water Purification. Where water is contaminated, we introduce water filtration. Where water is scarce, we endeavor to drill fresh-water wells. Where wells are non-functioning, we work to repair and reinstall.

All water projects are executed in conjunction with exemplary organizations & accompanied by certified health & sanitation education. For more information, email us at water@voxunited.org or go to www.voxunited.org
