Help Fund a Water Project
More than 1 in 8 people in the world don't have access to safe drinking water. Nearly 80% of illness in developing countries is linked to poor water and sanitation conditions. In Sub-Saharan Africa alone, 40 billion hours a year are spent mostly
by women—just hauling water. That’s equivalent to a year’s labor for the entire workforce of France. Every $1 invested in water and sanitation generates on average an $8 return in the form of saved time, increased productivity, and reduced health costs. Can you imagine living in a world like this? Where you can't even drink clean water. Not everyone in the world gets the privilege of having safe drinking water at their fingertips. Every little bit counts, and I'm trying to help people in need!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.
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.
