Clean Water Changes Everything

Join the Fight to End the Water Crisis

Since 2016, NAHAD members have come together in the fight to bring clean, safe drinking water to those in need around the world. Through donations on dues renewal forms and awareness campaigns tied to our annual conventions, we have raised over $43,000. This money has provided more than 1,000 people access to clean water and bring us closer to ending the global water crisis. All contributions —100 percent — are sent to the field, where it changes lives and brings water security to the world’s most vulnerable populations.

Why Water?

703 million people lack basic access to clean and safe drinking water. That’s nearly 1 in 10 people worldwide or twice the population of the United States. The majority live in isolated rural areas and spend hours every day walking to collect water for their family. Not only does walking for water keep children out of school or take up time that parents could be using to earn money, but the water often carries diseases that can make everyone sick.

More About NAHAD's Social Cause

No one should have to live without clean water. Yet unfortunately more than 785 million people, twice the population of the United States, do not have access to this precious resource. This is why NAHAD decided to make a difference and support charity: water, a nonprofit organization that brings clean water to millions worldwide

NAHAD launched our social cause initiative in 2016 to support a cause connected to the hose industry: clean water. As a result, NAHAD has joined with charity: water to directly support water projects in countries with the greatest need. charity: water works in 29 counties worldwide focusing on providing rural communities with their first access to clean water. Over the past 15 years, the organization has implemented over 94,000 water projects to provide safe, clean water for more than 14 million people. Fully 100 percent of NAHAD’s donation will go directly to water project costs (private donors cover salaries and overhead).
