Water Advocates' mission is to advocate on behalf of those people who lack safe water-- specifically at least 5 gallons per person per day--and basic sanitation.

Water Advocates' chief goal is to increase U.S. public and private funding for safe, affordable and sustainable drinking-water supplies and adequate sanitation worldwide. Water Advocates neither implements projects nor seeks donations for itself, but works to raise contributions for the water and sanitation sector as a whole. Our specific goal is to significantly increase by 2010 the amount of funding available for efficient water and sanitation projects from the U.S. Government and private U.S. sources such as civic organizations, faith communities, businesses and philanthropic foundations.
