Water for Life
Clean water is essential for life. The human body itself is comprised primarily of water and we thirst for it continually. Without even noticing, we use hundreds of gallons of water every day to wash our hands, bathe, cook, and carry out daily tasks.
Can you imagine not having access to clean water? What if you were limited by having to walk miles every day to collect water, not knowing if it would make you and your family ill? Imagine keeping your children home from school just to fetch water.
Envision your livelihood of farming and raising animals that are crippled by drought, sickness, and vanishing water sources; or having to use the same pond your animals use to fill your home canisters to the muddy, contaminated brim.
The truth is . . . about 1 billion people in the world lack access to clean, safe drinking water. This epidemic has come to be known as the World Water Crisis, and it is just that—a crisis.
Each year in Africa, 40 billion working hours are spent just fetching water. What would happen if those hours were used to grow small businesses, farm, attend school, and enjoy life? Clean water alone could change the entire continent! That is good news.
With the help of our national partners, World Help provides clean water in developing countries. We carry out a solid strategy of implementation, maintenance, and communication about ongoing projects. Our vision is to provide clean water for all who lack it—bringing a gift that has the power to transform lives.
For just $45, you can give three people in a village the gift of clean water. Your gift, combined with the gifts of others, will go toward a well or water project in a developing community.
You can also give a gift that will help provide a well or water project for an entire community or village. It is amazing that something as simple as water can rewrite the future and perhaps even save a life!
Water empowers, enables, and equips. It is a whole new way of giving—giving that creates rather than just alleviates.
We hope you will choose to overflow and be a part of the solution.
