**Water is Life: Ensuring Safe Drinking Water for Children in Coastal Syria**

💧💕 Did you know that in coastal Syria, millions of children lack access to safe drinking water? 🤯 Thousands have been displaced by conflicts and bombings, making it difficult for them to get the water they need to survive.

Imagine having to walk for hours every day to find a drop of clean water to drink. Are you ready to help?

In Syria, the ongoing conflict has disrupted access to safe water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services, leaving many children vulnerable to waterborne diseases.

**Dirty Water, Deadly Diseases** 😷

Cholera, diarrhea, and other waterborne illnesses are common among Syrian children. In areas like coastal Syria, where the water is often contaminated with salt and sewage, the risk of dehydration and illness is extremely high.

But Syria's children deserve better. They deserve access to clean, safe water.

**What is UNICEF doing? 🤝**

The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) is working tirelessly to ensure that children in coastal Syria have access to safe drinking water.

Here's what we're doing:

• We're providing water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services to communities in need, so families can access clean water and prevent the spread of diseases.

• We're supporting the installation of water treatment plants to purify seawater, making it safe for drinking and other uses.

• We're working with local partners to distribute water to families, and to help repair damaged pipes and infrastructure.

But we can't do this alone. We need your help.

**Will you join the cause? 💪**
