Help Fund a Water Project
I was originally doing this as my service project for my senior english class at Mason High School. However, as I continued researching this problem and took on the Water Challenge; I became more engaged in this. I am touched by all the kids and family in Africa that don't have access to clean drinking water while in America, we have plentiful amount of water. I decided that while doing this as my service project, I would spread awareness and donate as much money as I could. I went to my High School's environmental science class and presented this topic to that class of about 100 students. I got around 60 people that were actually willing to participate. This caused me to think that I could spread this problem to even more people.
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.
