Every day, more than 700 million people live without access to clean water — a crisis that affects health, education, and the future of entire communities. Without this basic resource, families face preventable diseases, missed opportunities, and the daily burden of walking for hours just to collect water that may not even be safe. We’re working on changing these stories, but we need your help to do more. Right now in communities around the world, clean water projects are underway thanks to supporters like you. New projects yield new chapters — where communities heal, families thrive, and everyday lives are transformed. | Don’t delay. Give today. | charity: water operates on a biannual grant cycle, and our first fundraising round of the year wraps up on June 30. In July, funds raised from January through June will be sent to our local partners to bring clean water to communities. We need your support to close this month strong and fund an estimated 22 more clean water projects by June 30. | | |

As always, 100% of your donation will go directly to fund clean water. | |
We’ll always keep you updated on our progress, bringing you closer to the source. With your help, we can keep the stories flowing. In Ruganzu, Tanzania, Dr. Mawazo John supported Asha as she took deep breaths, bracing herself through contractions. Her labor at the village birthing center would stretch across hours, as excited loved ones gathered outside to hear good news. In this community, women face daily challenges but carry them with great strength. | |
The day Asha gave birth, one such challenge had turned a corner to hope: clean, safe water for a young mother — and the little one she welcomed into the world. For too long, the birthing center in Ruganzu didn’t have this precious resource. Thanks to donations from people like you, charity: water was able to step in and help — and the community received a clean water project in 2022. But there are many more moms and babies who need your support. Together, we can help more communities access clean water. | |
Will my donation make a difference? | |
Yes! 100% of every $40 you donate provides enough clean water for one person. And on average, every $10,000 donated funds one clean water project for a community, school, or health clinic. | |
Since charity: water was founded in 2006, we’ve been chasing one ambitious goal: ending the global water crisis. And while the water crisis is huge, we’re optimistic. We know how to solve the problem, and we make progress every day thanks to the help of local partners and generous supporters. If we work together, we believe everyone will have access to life’s most basic need within our lifetime. | | |
