Every year, 443 million school days are lost due to water and sanitation issues – either because children are too sick to attend school, or because they have to walk long distances to fetch water.
Children need to finish school in order to get a job and break the grinding cycle of generational poverty. And toilets are absolutely key to this. Since Rachel’s family built a toilet with handwashing facilities, Rachel’s grades have improved because she hardly ever misses a day of school.
