About 6.5 billion people live on our planet, 1.1 of those do not have access to clean drinking water
2 million people die every year from water-borne illnesses.
90% of those are children. That's almost one child every 15 seconds.
In some cases children are so dehydrated that they can not cry.

I'm not posting this to make you feel bad (drinking water is good, and we should thank God he has given us such wonderful lives.) I just wish to post this to draw awareness to the cause, and if possible... help those people.
I have started posting the story and info at my local librarys in MA. But the most powerful thing we can do is pray. So I ask you to pray... pray for the children that can't cry.
