What is the UNICEF Tap Project?

 

The UNICEF Tap Project is a nationwide campaign that provides clean water and adequate sanitation to children around the world.

 

With just $5, UNICEF can give one child safe drinking water for 200 days.

 

Since 1990, more than 2.1 billion people have gained access to clean drinking water thanks to the work of UNICEF and its partners.

 

Why Water?

 

Water is life. Yet 768 million people do not have access to safe, clean drinking water, and 2.5 billion people live without proper sanitation. When water is unsafe and sanitation non-existent, water can kill.

 

It isn’t just inconvenient – it’s lethal.

 

Every day, 1,400 children die from diseases directly linked to unsafe water or a lack of basic sanitation facilities.
