India is home to the largest concentration of poor people in the world. In a country struggling with poverty, it is the young, elderly and widowed who are hit the hardest. Here are some key facts:

• 1. 68.8% of the population live on less than $2 a day

• 2. 73 million Indian people lack adequate housing

• 3. Around 86 million people live in extreme poverty

In India, we have been building hand pumps to bring safe drinking water to communities. Usually, people would have to walk for miles to find fresh, clean water. We have built communal water pumps, allowing them to fill containers with ease and avoid contaminated sources. We are continuously working hard to build more, to help the thousands of people that are still in need of your support!
