General Well Donation
More people die each year from dirty water than from violence. It’s shocking – we agree.
According to UNICEF, 5,000 children die per day from disease stemming from contaminated water.
What’s more, the process of going to fetch water is a long and arduous one, and usually falls to young girls. They must travel hours in each direction, facing wild animals, precarious terrain, and even predatory adults. Even if their journey is a “safe” one, they miss school, putting them behind.
When adult women are tasked with collecting water, they face the same risks and can’t earn income during those long hours of walking.
You can change all of that.
By donating even $10 today, you can support the installation of wells for clean, uncontaminated water right in the villages of South Sudan where they are so desperately needed.
