Right now, 71 million people in Bangladesh are drinking contaminated water, often laced with dangerous levels of arsenic and E. coli. An estimated 30 million people are exposed to unsafe arsenic levels, contributing to roughly 43,000 deaths each year from arsenic-related diseases.

Thousands of villages throughout Bangladesh have no access to clean water. Some villages have to walk miles to get access to clean water for their everyday needs. We would like to help these villages access clean water without the need to walk miles in the day and night. This would also save the lives of thousands of people having access to clean drinking water. we aim to reach out to as many villages in Bangladesh to have a water tube well installed for clean drinking water.

This fall, BSO is partnering with the BASMAH Foundation to build water wells in underserved districts across Bangladesh, giving families access to safe, clean water and helping prevent the diseases caused by contamination. Every donation brings us closer to funding a well and changing lives in these communities.
