Foursquare Children of PromiseWould Like to Thank Water Test Project The water test project was initiated to explore the arsenic levels in the drinking water. Although, drinking water is boiled or filtered, this process does not remove arsenic. E xposure to arsenic is not the only danger Cambodian children face today. Diseases associated with poor water quality attributes to 74% of all deaths in Cambodia.Cambodia’s wetlands are continually being reduced, greatly impacting the availability of clean water throughout the country. It is our sincere hope to ensure the availability of safe water for all our homes and their communities by furthering our efforts educating on the importance of water health and through the continuation of the water test project. |
