Help Fund a Water Project
As a family of 5 with 3 young, impressionable boys, we are looking at ways to make a difference in our world. Our family theme for this summer is "One Selfless Summer", in which we hope that owe can raise $3500 for clean water in Africa. This project has two purposes; primarily to help those in need but to also impact our perspective on the need to help others. All three boys have committed to share some of their allowance, conduct fundraising activities and pray for those in need. Please join with us to help make a difference, we hope this is only the beginning of something much bigger.
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.
