Help Fund a Water Project
I'm a representative for a club at my school called World Affairs. We decided we wanted to help out with The Water Project this year because we feel that water is something everyone can relate to. Everyone needs water, we drink it, use it as a power source, it hydrates the food we eat and it keeps us clean. It's hard to not take this for granted when we live in an area of upstate New York so abundant with clean water and we feel that everyone should have the ability to access it. This is the perfect opportunity to make this happen without being invasive to the communities our funds help.
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.
Why It Matters
About The Water Project
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.
