Help Fund a Water Project
To be honest, it was the moment that our child dumped flavoring into his water bottle that we realized that we really do take clean water for granted. We decided to take action and give back to those who desperately need our help. We have three beautiful and healthy boys that mean the world to us and the thought of not being able to provide them with clean water is disheartening. Our children are extremely excited about helping others and have been involved by sharing ideas and collecting donations. We figured out that if 650 people could donate $10 each, we could provide an entire community with what we have easily accessible to us each and every day. We appreciate all of your support. We will keep you posted! Thanks Again, The Shay Family from Butler, PA

Why It Matters
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.
