Help Fund a Water Project
Residents of Central New York are fortunate to enjoy access to several bodies of freshwater such as the Oswego River, Lake Ontario, Lake Neatahwanta, and the Finger Lakes to name a few. Our Bodley students are aware that there are communities throughout the world where this is not the case. There are villages in Africa where women and young children have to walk several miles each day to transport their family's water supply. The Water Project, Inc. is helping to alleviate this problem by bringing fresh drinking water to African villages. We as a school body can help change lives by contributing to this worthwhile cause.
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
