Message

This is a project I wanted to do with my Dad before he passed away and now through this fund raising tool, I think it may be possible! I can't imagine what it would be like to have to drink dirty water or walk for miles to get water. I hope I can raise enough money for a well for 3 reasons:
To honor my dad
To enhance people's lives
To share the love of Jesus

UPDATE: Goal is reached! Praise God and thanks to everyone who donated! GFA Donor Services said the well-building process could take 6-12 months. I will be getting an update when the well is built and I'll pass it along to you all!
Thanks so much!

About Jesus Wells

Read below to learn about where donations go.

Jesus Wells increase the health standards of a village, allowing for children to be nourished and animals to be watered. The wells you provide are located in the village or community, so women and children no longer have to walk hours to find water.

With one well you can save an entire village from waterborne illnesses.

Unlike the dirty water from stagnant ponds, streams or old shallow wells, this water is clean and creates an awareness of good hygiene, leading to fewer medical problems and healthier people.
