Water Can’t Wait – Operations Relief Fund

About the Campaign

An update from Executive Director, Susanne Wilson:

Thanks to our amazing donors’ generosity, now all donations above our $250K operations relief goal will be applied to fund 3 water wells – one in each country we serve!  The $.50 on the dollar match continues!

We are truly overwhelmed by the support and generosity you as donors have shown us. When we set our fundraising goal of $165,000, we were being optimistic, but now thanks to you, we’ve surpassed our goal! We want to continue fundraising, as we still don’t know how the current unrest and COVID-19 will affect our work in the coming months. There is no safe prediction of what the future holds for our organization and whether donors can continue their current level of operational support. So, our Board of Directors and friends have raised an additional $25,000 in matching funds to keep the momentum going! Beginning June 1^st, all donations to the Water Can’t Wait: Operations Relief Fundraiser will again be matched $.50 on the dollar. Our new goal for this fundraiser is $250,000. We believe this amount will ensure we can continue our work of providing clean water and life-saving sanitation and hygiene training to those in need.  Or, if you would like to support us through the next 12 months, please select our Water Guardians designation on our donation form, to make your gift a monthly, recurring donation. Donate by clicking the button above or sending a check to P.O. Box 26747 Austin, TX 78755.  In the memo line, please include: “Water Can’t Wait Fundraiser.”

Any money raised over our new $250,000 goal will go toward funding one full well in each of the countries we work in.  Our work originates from a place of great love, both for you, our donors, and for those we serve in East Africa. Although we hope you can continue to support us financially, we understand if you cannot at this moment. We have so much love and gratitude for our donors who have gotten us this far.

We sincerely thank you for your faithful support. God bless and stay safe!
