Bonny Slope 5th Grade Gift 2015 Fundraising Page
Help Fund a Water Project
The 2015 graduating class of 5th graders at Bonny Slope Elementary raised awareness + donated to The Water Project as their departing gift to the school. Please join them in learning about the impact access to clean water can have on communities. As part of their learnings, the 5th graders had to carry jugs (weighing 40 lbs) around to every activity for a couple of days just like children their age do in many parts of the world. If you feel inclined, join in with a donation. Every dollar helps!
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.

Why It Matters
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.
