Help Fund a Water Project
At any one time, half of the developing world's hospital beds are occupied by water related diseases, 2nd biggest killer of children and mostly under 5 years old. An estimated $9 Billion would achieve universal access to clean water and sanitation across the world, Europe spends $12 Billion a year on perfume. I could live without food another day, but without water I would be useless. The least we can do is help provide the most basic necessity of them all, to those who do not have that luxury.
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.
