Nearly 1 out of every 5 deaths under the age of 5 worldwide is due to a water-related disease. That age group is especially close to our hearts right now as we celebrate Brynn and Rayne's 4th and 2nd year of life. In lieu of birthday gifts this year, we ask that our friends and family consider donations to a cause that will ensure future birthdays for little boys and girls halfway across the globe. (Don't worry... Our girls will still feel lots of love and spoiling on their special day!)
Our fundraising goal is $500. Any amount helps, but for more information on the real costs of providing safe water in sub-Saharan Africa, go here. Thank you for your support!

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.
