March 22nd was World Water Day, and we wanted to make it clear just how important water is to all our projects around the world.
Wildlife is disappearing all over the world (and reappearing in wildlife markets which causes all sorts of problems like new disease spread!). The more it disappears, the more factory farming and palm oil take up our global drinking water supply. Subsequently water becomes ever more precious in rebuilding our wild places and communities around the world.
In Morocco we have to make new wells to reclaim and rebuild wildlife habitat as well as supply water to our partners in the wildlife rehab project; RAPAD-MAROC.
In Tanzania our partners are in regions where people must travel long distances to get water for their communities and their animals. After doing so, the water is often dirty and unfit for consumption.
It is up to us to help them to supply their projects with life-giving essentials like water.
