While training for R.A.G.B.R.A.I. this year I have spent a lot of time thinking. I decided that I would like my efforts this summer to make a difference in more than just my life. I've found this charity to be not only worthy of attention, but one of the easiest and most direct ways to give another person a better chance at life.
$10 Gives one person clean water. $50 Gives clean water to an entire family. $250 Water for a Classroom $1,000 Purchases a well pump $6,500 Funds an Entire ProjectDid 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.
