Although HOPE, a health oriented NGO, with assistance of its esteemed partners P&G and METRO Stores has relentlessly worked in rural areas of Sindh and Punjab to provide pure drinking water and thus safe-guard the health of the general population, ventured into the internally displaced persons’ camps of Jalozai in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and set up several stations in different locations to demonstrate the usage of P&G’s purifier of water and to advise its short and long term health-benefits.
It goes without saying that the one major reason for all kinds of diseases rampant in rural Pakistan is because of dirty, contaminated and often toxic water that people are forced to consume.
Healthy, pure, clean water is not accessible to them specially in the IDP camps.
