Wells Bring Hope focuses on creating and maintaining access to safe drinking water for entire communities in Niger. This is a life saving initiative in a region of the world where basic services are lacking. Most importantly, it changes lives in a instant because women and girls are released from the task of walking long distances all day to carry home muddy water. It means that WBH's actions can have a generational impact. Consider volunteering or donating if you want to be a part of that change.

I have had the great honor of working with Wells Bring Hope for over a year now and it has been incredibly rewarding. This wonderful organization gives safe water and sanitation (along with the amazing and extremely important side effect of education for women and girls) to villagers in Niger, West Africa. The people who run Wells Bring Hope are genuinely devoted to its mission, which makes it a great organization to be a part of.

Wells Bring Hope is a wonderful organization that I've been fortunate to learn about and have volunteered for. This group of people, led by Barbara Goldberg, volunteer so much time and effort to help people gain access to clean, safe water. I can't imagine life without something so basic as access to water, and now I know there are people who are in desperate need of it. Wells Bring Hope not only drastically improves lives, they help save them.

I have been affiliated with Wells Bring Hope since its inception. It is a fantastic organization doing wonderful things for communities in Niger who have not had access to clean water. Because of the devotion of Barbara Goldberg and the many volunteers dedicated to making a difference in Niger, Wells Bring Hope has brought hope to hundreds of families, whose daughters can now go to school, and whose infants no longer die from drinking polluted water. this group has truly made a difference.

I saw a post a while back to be a volunteer social media assistant for the organization. Since I took the position, I have learned a great deal about the misfortunes of the people of Niger and what we as people can do to help them.

I have been a strong supporter of Wells Bring Hope since its inception three years ago and am intensely proud of my involvement with the organization., Twice I traveld to Niger to help interview women in remote villages about their dire need for safe water. I've seen first hand their living conditions and how the wells we drill absolutely changes their lives and that of their children. Once this basic need is filled, they can finally begin to improve their lives in other ways. I have to add that the World Vision staff who use the money we raise to drill the wells are incredible professionals with huge hearts. They show incredible compassion and respect for the village people. I consider myself fortunate to work with them.

As a huge supporter of Wells Bring Hope (WBH), it is my pleasure to express my enormous gratitude for what this organization stands for, and has done in such a short time! First and foremost, envisioning to provide fresh drinking water as "the source of life" as different from providing housing or education; or even investing in medical research, is in and of itself, the single most effective means of saving/preserving life in the developing world. Selecting and focusing on Niger, identified as the second poorest nation in the world was also a critical decision that has successfully shown immediate & impressive results. In short, WBH from inception-to-date, has proved its mission to be noble, has clearly shown how efficaciously it is managed as a right size non-profit, and will undoubtedly continue to impressively change lives for the better.

When I first got involved with Wells Bring Hope, I was simply looking for an opportunity to get involved with an organization that focused on helping women and girls, in particular. What I found, however, was a group that changed my life. Everyone involved in Wells Bring Hope is unbelievably dedicated and passionate about bringing the critical issue of clean, safe water to a broader awareness, and helping people in desperate need. I had no idea the horrendous conditions that so many were living under, by not having clean, safe water, and as I learned, I felt more and more compelled to share my knowledge and experiences with everyone I met. Clean, safe water, reduced child mortality, lets girls get an education, reduces trachoma, and gives villagers HOPE for a better future. Safe water is not the end...it is the beginning. Wells Bring Hope is working hard for a mighty purpose, and i am incredibly proud to be a part of what they are doing.

When I decided to get involved in grant writing, I researched a number of organizations before offering my time. I chose Wells Bring Hope because it has an excellent mission, is very focused (rather than just asking for donations to "help people in need"), and because of how much goes directly to the cause. But it gets even better... due to their partnership with World Vision, a small amount of money pays off for over a decade. Longer, actually, when you consider the long-term impact on the life of a girl who can be educated and employed, rather than carry water all day.
