Why Water? Get the story.


  • Nearly 1 billion people don't have safe water to drink.
  • A child dies every 15 seconds from a lack of clean water.
  • 1 in 4 children who die before age 5 worldwide, die of a water related disease.
  • Children often walk miles every day to collect dirty water to drink.
  • You can change that for only $10 per person!

These are children we met in Kenya this past May. They know the reality of living without access to clean water.

But hearing their stories is not about despair, it's about discovering hope. When you help remove the obstacles in their way, they will thrive. They will become who they were created to be.
