Are You Ready for a Challenge?
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.

UPDATE: We've just launched a new Personal Water Challenge at Change.org. Check it out.
Here's How it Works
The Challenge:
Give it Up
Make water your only beverage for 2 weeks. Just for 2 weeks!- Give it Away
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. 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. - Wear your wristband
It'll help you remember to choose water and to spread the word. - Continue your sacrifice for 2 weeks.
You'll be amazed at how the savings add up. Encourage your whole family to participate.
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 wells, build systems to catch rain-water and build small sand dams in Kenya where the need for water is desperate.

Very special thanks to Brenda Koinas 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!
