Canned Water 4 Kids retains IMMD Web Design for a new website makeover.

On rare occasion do we at IMMD Web Design get the opportunity to partner with organizations as noble as Canned Water 4 Kids. It is our privilege to build a new website and contribute to the success of their international efforts.

More than a billion people—almost one-fifth of the world’s population—lack access to safe drinking water, and 40 percent lack access to basic sanitation, according to the 2nd UN World Water Development Report. According to the World Health Organization, a child dies every eight seconds from drinking dirty water. It is estimated that 5,000 children die every day as a result of drinking unsafe water. And, every 21 seconds a child perishes from waterborne diseases such as typhoid, cholera, and dysentery. A UNICEF Report found that about six million people are blind today from Trachoma, an eye infection spread mainly through poor hygiene caused by lack of adequate water supplies and unsafe environmental sanitation conditions.

The UN warns that unless action is stepped up, the number of people without access to safe water will increase to 2.3 billion by 2025, with the number of those who die from unsafe water expected to jump sharply as well.

Ensuring access to safe, clean water worldwide is critical. Not only is it essential for successful agriculture, food and energy production, It is a children's issue because water is vital for healthy development and survival.

CannedWater4Kids, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization focused on bringing clean, safe water to children worldwide.
