My Nonprofit Reviews

Water is Basic captured our hearts over 10 years ago. The approach of supporting local Sudanese to build up their own communities with water wells is not only life changing but sustainable. The Water is Basic team doesn't stop there. They require a well committee with equal number of men AND women to learn how to manage and repair their community water well. Together, they develop a revenue plan to keep the well functioning. Not only do the communities then have clean drinking water, but relieving the daily burden of walking for miles to retrieve water allows girls the opportunity to attend school. Talk about life changing and life saving work. This is what inspires us to be a part of Water is Basic.
