CLEAN WATER
Clean Water and Hope for Entire Communities
Millions of women and children in the toughest places walk for miles in dangerous condition to collect water — and it might not even be clean.
OUR APPROACH
Together we can provide the safe, clean water families need and tell them about Jesus’ Living Water.
New Wells
Women and children often spend hours each day searching for water. Drilling new clean water wells provides entire communities with plenty of water for drinking, cooking, hygiene and growing their own food. At almost every well-opening ceremony, the message of hope is shared.
Well Repairs
Broken wells can leave entire communities at risk for deadly waterborne diseases. Well repairs, often completed by local staff teams, provide a cost-effective way to restore clean water and further church planting efforts in unreached communities.
Water Filters
In areas where water systems are compromised or where drilling is not possible, water filters provide an effective solution. As local staff teams distribute the filters, they also build relationships and share hope.
Hygiene Trainings
Along with clean water, local staff teams provide training on how to prevent dangerous illnesses by properly storing collected water, practicing safe sanitation and maintaining proper washing. The training provides lifesaving information and introduces unreached people to Jesus.
Latrines
Today millions still lack adequate sanitation facilities. Latrines help relieve suffering and restore dignity by providing safe restroom and handwash facilities in underserved communities — tangibly expressing the kindness of Jesus.
FEATURED STORY
Building Hope That Lasts
In Jorge’s* Cuban community, people do not have a safe, clean water source. Many families also follow a mixture of ancient African and Cuban religious practices — including idol worship.
