End Water Poverty

By email:

Please sign the End Water Poverty petition. It's really quick to sign but incredibly important and urgent - we've only got six weeks to go before the G8 meet in Japan!

Dear Friends,

Help end water poverty:

The End Water Poverty campaign, which WaterAid supports, has been targeting the G8 to agree a global action plan for sanitation and water since 2007, but we now need to build even more pressure in the lead-up to the summit in July.

We need more signatures targeted at the Japanese Prime Minister, Yasuo Fukuda, who is this year's G8 host. Click below and become one of almost a million action-takers!

We need to show it's time for change! Sanitation and safe water are basic human rights. Everyone in the world should have access to them. But without these services thousands will continue to die each day. The solutions are simple but the G8 need to commit to this action plan. Please tell them: it's time for change.

To take action today, go to www.endwaterpoverty.org/action

Thank you so much for your help - please forward this email to friends!
