Emma Montgomery's Capstone: Water for Education
Help Fund a Water Project
For my Capstone Project for my senior year at Cannon School, I have decided to partner with The Water Project to help provide clean water to a school in Uganda. I want to encourage education and, in turn, help break the cycle of poverty through knowledge.
Only $34 is needed to supply clean, safe water to one person. My current goal will provide 44 people with water for the rest of their lives. That is a BIG deal. Truly, every little bit counts so please donate whatever you can! Also, please contact me at [email protected] if you have any questions! Thank you for making a difference!
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.
