September Campaign 2012
We’re turning six. To celebrate, we launched the September Campaign to bring clean water to the people of Rwanda.

From tragedy to triumph, Rwandans have rebuilt their country faster than anyone thought possible. Now, they’re working to give clean water to every single person. You can help.

Introducing… Yellow Thunder!

2 comments
Thousands of you joined us last September and helped fund our first drilling rig. Then, in March, we were thrilled to share with you that the rig drilled its first well in Ethiopia! At charity: water, we’re big on showing impact, whether it’s through proving completed water projects with photos + GPS or sharing stories from the field on our blog.

Now, you can follow the rig’s day-to-day progress and check its location via Twitter.

Let’s make World Water Day all about birthdays.

0 comments

Today is World Water Day, where people around the globe recognize the need for clean drinking water. We’re using today to talk about… birthdays.

Five and a half years ago, charity: water began with a birthday party. Founder Scott Harrison gave up his 31st birthday gifts and asked for donations to water projects instead. He used 100% of the money to fund clean water for communities in northern Uganda. Since then, we’ve made it our goal to bring clean, safe drinking water to people in developing countries.

We believe birthdays can change the world, but don’t just take it from us… take it from the people who have given up their birthdays for clean water before! Watch our fundraisers explain how their birthdays have changed the world:
