goal
There are 800 million people in the world living without access to clean water. Let's change that!
In just one day, it is estimated that more than 152 million hours of women and girls' time is consumed for the most basic of human needs — collecting water for domestic use.
Surveys from 45 developing countries show that women and children bear the primary responsibility for water collection in the vast majority of households (76%). Sadly, this is time not spent working at an income-generating job, caring for family members, or attending school.... But it doesn’t have to be that way. There are simple solutions like drilled wells, spring protections and BioSand Filters that help provide clean water to communities around the world.
We started this fundraising campaign to help charity: water build these types of projects, and we're looking for anyone who can help us.
Please donate to our campaign -- anything you can give is a huge help.
100% of the money will be used to build clean water projects, and when they’re complete, charity: water will send us photos and GPS coordinates so we can see the exact community we helped.

A wonderful charity, and I look forward to hearing more about building the well and how it helps so many in the village.
