No Water Means No Opportunity for Women
Women Can’t do Anything Water.org Campaign: No Water Access Means No Opportunity for Women
In just one day, more than 200 million hours of women’s time is consumed for the most basic of human needs - collecting water for domestic use. This lost productivity is greater than the combined number of hours worked in a week by employees at Wal*Mart, United Parcel Service, McDonald’s, IBM, Target and Kroger, according to Gary White, co-founder of Water.org, who co-founded the organization with actor Matt Damon. Water.org is launching the ‘Women Can’t Do Anything’ campaign to bring the issue into the open and encourage people to help solve it.
