Diarrhea kills 400,000+ children under 5 every year. We made a grant to support WASHmobile—a water, sanitation, & hygiene program designed to reach high-risk families in DRC & South Sudan.

This week 20,000 pigs burned to death in a factory farm fire in Ontario.
They haven't let photographers inside. But here's what another pig factory farm looked like after it burned.
It's hard to imagine the suffering of these intelligent, sensitive animals — trapped, without any means of escape or hope of help, as the flames engulfed them.
It's harder to imagine the greed of an industry too cheap to even install sprinkler systems.
It stuns me that we let farmers confine 20K sentient pigs inside a single factory farm—just imagine their terror at burning alive inside a miserable warehouse. Please take a look at your food choices and consider opting out of this system.

Anyone in DC tomorrow interested in global health, please come to this!
Safe water is one of the most powerful public health tools we have—yet billions still lack reliable access. 🚰
Even low-cost improvements can reduce child mortality and strengthen human capital. So what’s holding progress back?
