Help Fund a Water Project
I am fundraising not only for a school project, but because we should help out 3rd world countries who dont get to experience the same quality of life as we do. It is amazing to learn about all the problems that these people go through. We take so much for granted compared to them. As soon as I went through the site i wanted to help. A suggestion they had is to not have anything but water for the next 2 weeks. Donate the money you would have spent on other drinks, and give it to this fundraiser. If you check out this video you will want to help too. Just click the link and be ready to make a difference. Remember, $10 can give
people in 3rd world countries water for a lifetime. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idIE7-zb53k&feature=player_embedded

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.
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.
