Hfi78 Water Challenge
Help Fund a Water Project
We, as a grade 7/8 class, have been researching global inequalities and fresh water shortages. We recognize that we live in a part of the world that has an abundance of clean drinking water and would like to help others that may not be as lucky as we are.
We have, as a class, pledged to drink only water as part of the Water Challenge. We will be donating the money we save from not buying other drinks to the water project.
We are blogging our progress through this challenge, check it out:

Comments or donations are greatly appreciated.
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
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.
