With mixed emotions I have watched and donated to the recent and very successful ice bucket challenge, and for that organisation I am very happy, especially since my friends have their own stories.
The mixed emotion was triggered by the uneasy feeling and images of others in poor countries who have extremely limited access to the water I take for granted. I am not planning a trip, to jump out of a plane or climb Everest. I am only planning on asking you once. Please help me achieve my simple $ goal and support water projects in Tanzania.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.
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.
