Help Fund a Water Project
The 7th grades purpose to start this fundraiser is to help a school in need and to help their community by helping to fund a well.
We are doing this because the water sources that they get drinking water from are usually too far away or are unsanitary. Students suffer from diseases which prevent them from learning because they are out of school due to these diseases.
The whole seventh grade which consists of around 100 students decided that we wanted to work together on a project to help make a change somewhere. We felt that this project was important because we don’t even realize how accessible water is to us, and so unattainable for so many others. We felt if we worked together we could make a big change in many student’s lives and futures.
Please help us help others!
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.
