Clean Water, WASH & Nutrition for 500 Muslim Girls
Organization information
Asia America Initiative
Location: Washington, United States of America
Summary
Poverty, hunger, rampant waterborne diseases, and limited public health plague the Philippines. Sulu Province remains near the bottom of the UN's worldwide Human Development Index. A school-aged population of some 350,000 children -- more than half girls -- are suffering from hunger. Worldwide, female students are most affected in similar schools. In 2021-22, we will continue to assist schools, and a total of 500 girls, to create clean water systems, improved hygiene, and daily nutrition.
