Help Fund a Water Project
Everyday I wake up, use the bathroom, shower, brush my teeth, drink a glass of water.... Sounds like a normal day to everyone doesn't it? Well, it isn't. Did you know, nearly 1 billion people on Earth don't have access to clean, safe drinking water? Some of them die of thirst, water-related illnesses; and many of them live in poverty because they can't do anything with the lack of clean water.
We complain, all the time. About how we "suffered" from school, work and many other minor problem, not even realising there are billions and billions of people out there, living in a situation 1000000x worse than ours. I bet not a single one of you can imagine how life would be like without water. Well close your eyes, imagine in the land of Africa, mothers crying over the death of their children because they drank dirty water; fathers with faces of desperation because all their crops withered. That's why I'm here. To raise money for those in need. To build wells for them, so they can have water, something we take for granted. My goal, is to raise $7000 USD and fund a well. A single well, which may help hundreds of people in Africa. So please help me. We, living in a modern, well - developed society are blessed with the unlimited supply of water, gushing out of the taps. We can't stand here doing nothing. So take action now and donate!Why It Matters
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.
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.
