Often times, we in first world countries take for granted the availability of many necessities, especially water. However in third world countries water is often times scarce. To get water many people, often times children, have to walk large distances to and from water sources to bring home to their family. Even when water is available it is not necessarily clean and safe to drink. I believe that this is a good cause that i want to support. I hope to raise awareness in my community and show how simple it is to change lives. What we spend on a meal can provide someone with clean and drinkable water. For as little as $10 you can provide one person with upwards of 10 years of water that is safe to drink.
Did you know nearly 1 billion people don't have safe water to drink?
Together, we can change that. Let's fund a new source of drinking water for those who suffer needlessly without it!
Our gifts will be used to construct or rehabilitate a water project, like a well or sand dam, in Africa. We'll see pictures, GPS coordinates, and updates as they come in from the actual water project we fund so we can celebrate the results along with the community we help.
The Water Project, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization unlocking human potential by providing clean, safe water to communities around the world who suffer needlessly without.
Working with local partners in countries like Kenya, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, South Sudan, and Uganda, we build long lasting water projects that are organized, owned and managed by the communities receiving them.
Together, with our partners we identify, implement, report on and follow up on every project. Then we share the whole story with you to inspire confidence in the work being done and the impact it has.
