MISSION AND PROGRAMS

Mission

Our mission is to change the lives and improve the health of vulnerable children around the world by providing clean and safe, purified water to orphanages, street shelters, rescue homes, schools and children’s hospitals.

Unlike other water aid charities, A Child’s Right (ACR) is the only water relief organization whose sole focus is bringing clean, safe drinking water to vulnerable children in urban centers around the world through provisions of NSF-certified water purification equipment. 

Programs

Cambodia has the highest infant and under-five mortality rates in Southeast Asia, statistics in part attributable to waterborne diseases. 

With 34 purification systems currentlyin place and benefiting more than 70,000 children countrywide, ACR plans to expand our scope by installing 20 new filtration systems in recipient organizations and schools in six of the nation's major urban centers.

FINANCIAL DATA

Revenues and Expenses: Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 2007

Balance Sheet: Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 2007

Note: The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot long survive, but the types of assets and liabilities also must be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
