Buy a Virtual Bottle of Water: Help Build a Real Well
Charity is “a nonprofit organization stimulating greater global awareness about extreme poverty, educating the public, and provoking compassionate and intelligent giving.” Their first mission is focused on providing clean water through the construction of more than 158 wells in 6 African countries. Part of the program is to teach well maintenance and other facets so the new water source can continue at maximum capacity. The public awareness campaign and direct action works at low-cost level. Buy a virtual bottle of water for $20. All of that donation goes to well projects in Africa. It can take anywhere from 200 to 500 bottles to build a well. It’s an easy way to get involved in solving one of our world’s main problems.
