If you want to know how your class, school, club, church or other group can get involved and help bring clean water to thousands of people, this is the place for you!

We've made it easy to launch your own "Water Challenge" to raise money for The Water Project.

Below you'll find everything you'll need to get started. We're providing all of these resources free-of-charge so that you can concentrate on making your project a success.

The Challenge:

• Give it Up
  Make water your only beverage...for 2 weeks.
  
  Take the money you would have spent on soda, juice, sports drinks, bottled water etc., and put it aside to give clean water. Collect your savings in a cup wrapped with a "The Water Challenge" label.
• Wear your wristband
  It'll help you remember to choose water and to spread the word.
• Continue your sacrifice for 2 weeks.
  If you are heading toward the soda machine, head for the water fountain instead. If your family goes out to dinner and you usually order iced tea, ask for water. It's free. You'll be amazed at how the savings add up. Encourage your whole family to participate.
• Give it Away
  After 2 weeks, calculate the amount of money saved by your sacrifice and give water through The Water Project, Inc. It will be used to drill and fix wells, build systems to catch rain-water and build small sand dams in Kenya, Zambia, Cameroon or India...you choose!

Very special thanks to Brenda Koinis and "The H20 Project" for their support of our efforts. This fundraiser was originally conceived by them and they have graciously donated the idea and materials to us for our work. It's another great example of why partnerships matter!
