We have the privilege of drinking clean, drinkable water straight from
our taps, but there are many people in this world who are struggling to
drink clean water. Many children in Africa die from water borne
disease from the water they drink.
We may be very generous
towards ourselves, buying new clothes every few weeks or every few
months, buying the new shoe that we do not need, eating out at posh
restaurants, and indulging ourselves. But who are we if we only care
about ourselves?
Money is just a piece of paper if you have no plan for it or if it
doesn't value add others
One person's capability is limited.
Therefore I hope to harness those people around to help those who are
still struggling to drink clean water, in order just to survive. Just by
buying one clothe less, or by putting off buying things that you don't
need, you can save a life.
As this is my first project, I set
the target to just USD$2000. And I hope everyone can help do our bit for
those who needs us. Just USD$23, and we can provide water for one person.
After donation, you will receive an email receipt and a project tracking link. In a few months, you'll receive reports about how your gifts are helping.
Please help to spread to all your friends to do our bit for those who need us.

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.
