150,000 Children Die Every Year in Pakistan from Drinking Dirty Water.

One child dies every four minutes in Pakistan from drinking dirty water. According to Franklin Wright, a software engineer and founder of Pristine Water, a water company in Pakistan, these deaths are preventable. You don’t need a new drug. You don’t need any research. You don’t need any new technology. All it takes is safe water. The people in Pakistan can’t drink the tap water and have to buy bottled water, but most of the time the bottled water they purchase is contaminated.
