Help Fund a Water Project
Each
of our Sunday School rotations is linked with a mission project this year,
to help those in need while the children learn about service. During our
Creation unit, our offering will go toward TheWaterProject.org, which provides clean
water for rural villages around the world. We know what it’s like to be hungry,
but it’s easy to take the availability of clean, fresh water for granted. Getting
access to clean water is one of the most cost-effective ways to help people in
developing nations. So let's make the world a better place and see how many people we can help!
Who's Helping?
| Date | Donor | Amount | Message |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10/12/12 | Caroline Coffin | $92.45 | Our Sunday School and church family did great during the month of September raising funds for the Water Project! |
Why It Matters
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.
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.
