Potty Papers/Where Would You Go?
![]()

Sanitation is essential to human health and dignity.
Worldwide, over 2.5 billion people, half the developing world’s population,
lack access to improved sanitation. Without proper waste disposal,
water sources above and below ground become contaminated and unsafe.
Unsafe water leads to severe outbreaks of diarrheal diseases, some of the deadliest diseases for children in the developing world. Every year, at least 1.8 million children die as a result of unclean water and poor sanitation.
There is hope.
With sanitation, including basic pit latrines, the overall health of a
community is improved. An improvement in sanitation leads to a more
than 30 percent reduction in child mortality. Sanitation also leads to an
increase in school and work attendance, which increases opportunity for
individual and corporate success.
You can get involved.
Through your participation in Potty Papers and Where Would You Go?, you will educate others about the necessity of sanitation.
Simply post Potty Papers sticky notes and Where Would You Go? posters in the bathrooms of your work, church, club or
school, and watch people become encouraged to join the work toward sanitation for all people. By promoting Lifewater’s sanitation programs, you will help
others achieve the blessings of health and dignity.
