Imagine getting up everyday without access to clean water. It's not just a matter of inconvenience____ it's a matter of life and death. In our community, we've faced months without, living us to rely on unsafe sources of water or expensive bottled of water to survive.
For months now we've been facing a dire situation in our community, a severe lack of clean water. #cleanwaterforall. The taps are dry and there are no other safe sources of water. This has forced us to rely on unclean water from streams and other sources that can contain harmful bacteria and other contaminants. This situation does not only poses a significant health risk to our community, but it also negatively impact our daily lives.
We cannot continue to live in a situation where access to clean water is a privilege and not a right.
We must demand better for our leaders and advocate for the resources and infrastructure that provide our community with safe and reliable access to water.
We call on all members in our community to join us in this fight for clean water. Together we can make a difference and ensure that everyone has access to the water they need to survive and thrive. This situation is not only unacceptable, but also a violation of our basic human rights.
Clean water is essential for health, and everyday life, and it's a fundamental necessity that should be available for everyone.
Remember: Clean water is not a luxury, it's a basic human right.
