You may have followed our Live Drill during last year’s September Campaign. On charity: water’s fourth anniversary, we tried to drill for clean water in a remote village called Moale, deep in the forest of Central African Republic.

We did not hit water.

But we did promise Moale we’d be back.

Yesterday, we drilled in Moale again… and this time… watch the video!

With the help of East
Lake Church, the charity: ball live auction, and other anonymous donors, we reached our fundraising goal of $1.7 million to give every Bayaka access to clean water. Here’s what happens next:

Watch how our local partners in Central African Republic are doing this with every charity: water project funded by this year’s September Campaign:
