My Nonprofit Reviews

Wells4Wellness is an easy choice for me to support as a volunteer and strategic planner. Living in the parched desert of Tucson, Arizona, I deeply appreciate the critical importance of water to life. Wells4Wellness amazingly not only meets the physical needs of Niger residents for water, but also looks to make “living water” available to everyone it encounters. Speaking to a Samaritan woman who was drawing water from a well, Jesus said, “Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life” John 4:13–14). Jesus helped the woman at the well to realize she needed not only physical water but also the “living water” he provides to those who put their faith in him. As Wells4Wellness meets the basic physical needs of people for water, those people become more open and available to hear about the saving grace of Jesus Christ. With little overhead and a small but mighty team ably led by Pat Herath, Wells4Wellness faithfully and effectively obeys Jesus’ commands to “love your neighbors as yourself” (Great Commandment) and to “make disciples of all nations” (Great Commission). Every contribution to Wells4Wellness is used wisely and “well.”
