My Name is Sam Worden and I am a instructor at Head Over Heels Gymnastics Center in Rutland, Vermont. I take college classes at the local community college and one of my final projects was to research a social issue of my choice. I chose my issue to be on the unclean, diseased water in other parts of the world. Once I began doing my research I began to really learn how huge of a problem this really is. Many people in other parts of the world do not have access to clean, safe water, and this is not fair. After the semester had ended and I turned in my final project, I decided to take it one step further. I decided I wanted to hold a fundraiser at Head Over Heels to help donate to The Water Project. I believe if I can get enough of my students to come to the Open Gym I am putting on that I will be able to make a difference for some of those families in other countries who are in desperate need of clean water.

Main Street Rutland, Vermont 05701 The Water Project Fundraising Open Gym : Saturday, May 21st from 5-7pm For more information on this fundraiser contact: Sam Worden- (cell) 802-558-4070 (e-mail) [email protected]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.
