DSTPgh International's 2014 Fundraising Page
Help Fund a Water Project
The International Awareness and Involvement Committee (IAIC) of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., Pittsburgh Alumnae Chapter, a public service organization's purpose is to provide assistance and support to the underserved through established programs in local communities throughout the world. One issue the Sorority is deeply concerned about is the lack of access to clean drinking water in underdeveloped nations. Without clean and safe water, millions of people will become infected and/or die. On Saturday June 7, 2014, our chapter will hold its 5th Annual 5k Run/Walk-for-Water, from 9am-1pm. The goal of the walk is to raise awareness of the issue and to raise funding for the construction of water wells so that one day, all people will have access to clean and safe water.

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

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.
