Why charity: water is fundraising for clean water

charity: water started five years ago with a simple idea: we’d share our story with the world, ask others to join us, and use 100% of the money we raised to fund clean water for people in need. With your help, we’ve had explosive growth. Our partners in the field are working at capacity to implement our projects. The only way to keep fighting the water crisis at this rate is to buy the equipment our partners need to get the job done faster.

So this year, we're getting a new set of wheels.

100% of what we raise in through September Campaign 2011 will fund a brand new drill rig and other equipment needed to dig about 80 new wells each year. Our partners in northern Ethiopia have already assembled their drill team. Now, we're giving them the equipment they need to accelerate their work and bring 100% clean water coverage to Tigray, Ethiopia.

Join us.
