Go to your kitchen sink, your bathroom, your refrigerator, take a walk to the faucet or hose… twist the knob, press the button, or etc. There is no suspense, typically, as to what happens next, water comes out, and it comes out until we shut it off. We use water everyday, we drink it, we cook in it, we wash our cars with it, water our grass, scrub the floors, clean our dishes and etc. its a necessity, a must, life would be impossible with out it. Yet, that impossibility is a very harsh reality, seen to over one billion people globally who do not have access to a clean, sustainable water source. The circumstances are dire, life or death, most of the times the latter, 5-6 thousands people die DAILY due to the lack of water, that majority of that number, children. It is impossible to not be saddened by that, to be sympathetic, but sadness nor sympathy will change this global problem. Action, a “doing” word, is what is needed, and thats just what we at DIPSAO want to offer, a means to action. The reality is many of us will never visit these far off places, the busyness of family, school, work, sports and etc. dictates our schedule, yet you can act without ever stepping foot on the soil. Half of the profit from each shirt purchase made gets directly donated to, www.globalwater.org. Wear the shirt, spread the word, and support the cause, and maybe, HOPEFULLY, together WE can change the world, one drop at a time.
