Help Fund a Water Project
We are called by Jesus to do something with our faith.
I was inspired by Dan Hastings and Doug Smith, who both spoke at our chapel and addressed that clean water is one of the biggest problems in this world. I was provoked to do something about this when I was listening to Brooke Fraser's song "Albertine", which was written about an orphan that really touched her heart in Africa named Albertine. The lyrics to the chorus say, "Now that I have seen, I am responsible. Faith without deeds is dead..."
How will this world be changed if we sit still and wait for someone else to take action? We are called. How can you help change the world for the good?
Let's try to raise $99 together, so we can help fund a well for a whole community in Africa.

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.
