Help Fund a Water Project
In the United States, many people are lucky enough to know that they can get water whenever necessary. Unfortunately, this is not the case everywhere in the world. Nearly 1 out of every 5 deaths under the age of 5 worldwide is due to a water-related disease. You can help the cause by donating money to help build a water well in small villages located around Africa. A few dollars can go a long way, and it would literally change the lives of people receiving this gift we take for granted every day.
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.
