People take water for granted and waste a whole bunch every day, but after the globally hyped up "ice bucket challenge" took the internet by storm it really made me think.
Children and families in third world countries DO NOT have access to clean water. People die daily because of this, and here we are lucky enough to be able to buy fresh clean bottled water or even just turn on a tap... And we're throwing it over ourselves, albeit to raise awareness of an illness, which i respect, but I feel that this was a dreadful way of going about it. So now i CHALLENGE you... Whether you have already been nominated or not, choose to save someone's LIFE and DONATE HERE instead of wasting any more water! $1 $5 $100 whatever you can afford to give will help. I appreciate you taking the time to read this, please share and see if we can make THIS CAUSE go global!!!!Date | Donor | Amount | Message |

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.
