"What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well." - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

UPDATE: New Target is $12,000!

We now have the opportunity to sponsor an ENTIRE Drilled Well that would bring clean water to 300 people in the water-stressed African nation of MALAWI.

In addition to building this Well, our funds will also be used to form a Water Committee that will educate the community on water hygiene, and proper sanitation!

Malawi is one of Africa's most densely populated and least developed countries. Most people here live in the tropical countryside where water is scarce. As a result, many women and children spend hours of their day walking to collect it. In Malawi, 50% of the population live below the poverty line, and 3 MILLION people lack access to clean water.

LET'S CHANGE THAT!

Family, friends, and colleagues, I call on your community spirit to support a great cause.

Every day, 2,200 kids under the age of 5 die from water-related illnesses. We can help change that.

Together with charity: water, 100% of EVERY dollar we raise will be sent to the field to fund our clean water project.

By reaching our goal, we can give an entire village clean, safe drinking water. I can’t think of a more valuable gift.

Upon completion of our Well, charity: water will send every donor a detailed project report, as well as photos and GPS co-ordinates of the exact community we helped!

Let’s make this vision a reality! Together we can leave a legacy that will last for generations.
