You Can Help Give Clean, Safe Drinking Water

Girl at new well in Sierra LeoneDo you believe that everyone deserves something as simple and crucial for life as clean, safe water?

Do you believe a child in Sierra Leone should spend her day in school instead of fetching dirty, diseased water from a pit?

Do you believe you can make a difference?

We do.

Nearly 1 billion people don't have access to clean, safe drinking water. We're changing that, one community at a time. And we need your help.


The Water Project provides clean, safe drinking water by
hand pumped water well
  1. Connecting donors to proven partners who are drilling fresh water wells, providing sanitation and hygiene training and constructing other sustainable water projects.

  2. Showing every donor the specific impact of their gifts through photos, short stories and GPS map coordinates of every project.

  3. Following up, monitoring and evaluating the projects we support to help ensure our shared work has a long-term impact.

We believe that every supporter can become part of the story of water by learning, acting, giving and then seeing the difference they make.

We're looking for willing hands...are you ready?
