We are Christ's hands and feet. It is through us that He heals, loves, and provides for those in need. Matthew 25 says: "Then the King will say to those on the right, Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you. For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. I assure you, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!"
We are in the process of adopting a baby girl from Ethiopia. God is revealing to us that adopting Maya is just the beginning. Did you know that today, 4,500 children will die from water related diseases? There is so much more to be done. In our world today, millions of women and children have to walk hours each day to get water from muddy ponds and rivers. Much of that water is infested with parasites and leeches. In fact, 80% of all diseases in the world are caused by unsafe drinking water and lack of sanitation. And the crazy thing is that for many of these people, clean water runs in lakes under their homes and villages, but they don't have the drilling equipment or the money to reach it.
Our goal is to raise the $5,000 to build a well in the next three months. It is a big goal, but God is bigger. If you see all the need in the world, but don't know what you can do to help, this is great opportunity to make a difference. Only $20 can give someone clean, safe water for two decades. Just $5,000 builds a well to serve a community of 250 people. That is 250 lives, not just saved, but transformed. To donate to our campaign for clean water click here. Together, we can make a dent in the global water crisis. Will you join us?
100% of the money raised through charity:water goes directly to water projects. Even better, when our project is complete, the well will be posted on Google Earth. We will get to see exactly what project our dollars funded.
We brought clean water to:

Diseases from unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war. Your donation will help change that.
