PROBLEM: One third of all handpumps installed in the last twenty years in developing countries are now broken. And 4,000 children die every day because of lack of clean drinking water. We feel that’s unacceptable. So we’re thinking differently.
SOLUTION: Instead of drilling more wells, we’re using our charitable gifts for something revolutionary – to train and employ handpump mechanics. The mechanics earn an income, bringing themselves out of poverty, and they save lives – turning water back on for thousands of people each year.
OUR GOAL: To raise $10,000 USD in one day. We know that’s epic. And this campaign has never been done before. But if we succeed, we will help bring clean water to 300 additional people each month. That’s 3,600 people per year!
I'm one of 100 bloggers asking my readers to donate to this great cause. This humbling cause. This cause that makes me so grateful for the everyday things that I take for granted. Would you be willing to donate $1, $5, $10 or even $20? If each of us 100 bloggers can get ten of our readers to donate $20 we will meet our goal! Or 20 of our readers to donate $10. I've donated! Will you help?
Donate at The Adventure Project and watch the dollar amount go up by the minute! Thank you.
