Dunlap High School LEAF Club's Fundraising Page
Help Fund a Water Project
LEAF Club stands for Leading an Environmentally Aware Future. We are the ecology club at Dunlap High School, and, as of April 2012, we are supporters of The Water Project. This will be our second year raising money and awareness, and we couldn't be more excited!
Our goal for fundraising is to reach $500 for 2013. Maybe one day we can raise $7,000–enough money to construct one well. Through donations and teamwork, our school club can reach our goal and maybe even more for future years. Last year, I raised roughly $75 by myself in just one school day! If more people join the effort, that number could easily be multiplied.
We can do this. Today’s youth CAN make a difference… after all, the question is not “Why?” but “Why not?”

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.
