Now in its fourth year, Project 24 is recognized as an important event platform that raises awareness of the global water crisis by mobilizing leading companies and citizens to deliver clean, safe water and hygiene education programs in 24 communities. This year, the event takes place in communities within Cambodia, India, Indonesia, the Philippines and Puerto Rico. In celebration of World Water Day and as part of the launch to this year’s [Make Your Mark 30 Day Challenge](http://xylemwatermark.com/make-your-mark-30-day-challenge/), Xylem Watermark will act as lead partner on the initiative, supporting one community in each of the five countries. In addition, Xylem volunteers will also be on site to partner with Planet Water Foundation on two AquaTower builds. AquaTowers are built on primary school grounds and support the clean water access needs of children. Planet Water’s Water-Health and Hygiene Education programs are implemented by school educators in the community’s language. Planet Water also provides training for local communities to maintain the systems, which includes five years of post-project sustainability support, water quality monitoring, and ongoing hygiene education program support for every beneficiary community. **About Xylem Watermark** Xylem Watermark, Xylem’s corporate citizenship program, provides and protects safe water resources for many of the world’s most vulnerable communities and educates individuals around the globe about water issues.
