Lifewater

What is a daily necessity that most of us take for granted every single time that we use it? Water. This luxury, in its purest form, is something that thousands of children go without every single day. The organization Lifewater, however, is attempting to relieve this crisis one village at a time. Lifewater is a Christian organization that has found a need and is attempting to meet it. Their mission is: “We are Christians committed to ending the global water and sanitation crisis, one village at a time.” And their vision is: SAFE WATER for every child. A HEALTHY HOME for each family. THE LOVE OF CHRIST for all.”

Lifewater has in-country staff that go into the villages and homes of the locals and teach them about healthy living and provide safe water for them. They educate the people about the illnesses/diseases that are carried in the unclean water and help show them ways to cleanse the water and improve their health. They have construction workers come in and design water solutions that are safe and accommodating for the village that they are in. They strive to engage local churches, establish healthy schools, and train villagers to lead their community with the mindset of healthy and safe living.

Lifewater gives people the opportunity to “sponsor a village” where you can donate money towards a fund to that specific village, and then you will be given access to see your money impact that community and follow along the process of educating and providing clean safe water, and healthy living for the community.

Lifewater is an awesome organization that strives to make a difference with the means and resources that they have and provides ways for the ordinary person to have a part in making a difference. They strive to reach the unreached and spread the good news of the gospel as they do it.
