I have been learning about the connections between clean drinking water and hunger, illness, education and poverty. I am troubled by the number of child deaths caused because of their lack of clean, safe drinking water and I want to do something to help. Please help me to raise funds for this great cause.
I will be asking EVERYONE I know to join me in the 2 weeks Water Challenge in January 2013. simply replace ALL your drinks for 2 weeks with tap water and donate money that you would have spent on pop, coffee, tea, juice etc to my fundraising. No need to send me the money it can all be done direct to the WATER PROJECT. Lets join together to create safe drinking water for communities in Africa :)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.
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.
