Working for Water
Water to Thrive transforms lives in rural Africa by bringing the sustainable blessing of clean, safe water to communities in need by connecting them to social investors, congregations, schools, individuals, and community groups with a heart to make a difference.
The Need for Water
Women and children walk for hours, miles each day. Waterborne diseases kill millions.
Children miss school.
Families are impoverished.
Empowering Communities
We work with regional aid organizations to identify and implement water projects, and provide training to communities to help sustain the success of completed wells.
