Why France Côte is fundraising for clean water

Many of us have no idea what it's like to be thirsty. We have plenty of water to drink -- even the water in our toilets is clean!

But many people around the world don’t have that luxury. Every day, about 1,400 children die from diseases caused by unsafe water and poor sanitation. But it doesn’t have to be that way. There are simple solutions like drilled wells, spring protections and BioSand filters that help provide clean water to communities around the world.

I started this fundraising campaign to help charity: water build these types of projects around the world, and I'm looking for anyone who can help me.

Please donate to my campaign -- anything you can give is a huge help.

100% of the money will be used to build clean water projects, and when they’re complete, charity: water will send us photos and GPS coordinates so we can see the exact community we helped.

    Hello,
    Wondering why I choose this Water Donation Campaign? About 30 years ago, I traveled during six month in Somalia. At that time, there was a terrible drought in all regions of west of Africa. I have seen what Scott Harrison is describing in his video. Young girls carrying water all day long for their family keeping them out of reach of education. Children playing, washing and drinking water in the same dirty water hole in the middle of the street. The Health Care and illness related to bad water or no water were just endless. Water do not just change life, it is LIFE. Still, 75 days left for this campaign, hope you will help me reach my goal, and give LIFE and HEALTH to people in need. (P.S. I am French so I hope my text is clear.) Thank you to all donators.

    Vous vous demandez peut-être ce qui m’a incité à participer à cette campagne de financement pour l’eau. Hé bien, il y a environ 30 ans, j’ai fais un voyage de six mois en Somali. À cette époque une terrible sécheresse sévissait en Afrique de l’ouest. J’ai vu trop souvent ce que Scott Harrison décrit dans sa vidéo. Des jeunes filles marchant de nombreux kilomètres pour aller chercher l’eau indispensable à la survie de leur famille ce qui pouvait prendre une journée entière. Plus loin des enfants pouvaient jouer, se laver et boire l’eau qu’ils trouvaient dans un trou d’eau au milieu du chemin. Les problèmes de santé reliés à l’eau ou à l’absence d’eau sont sans fin. L’eau ne change pas seulement la vie, l’eau c’est la vie. Il reste encore 75 jours à cette campagne de financement. J’espère que vous pourrez m’aider à atteindre mon objectif afin d’aider ceux qui en ont le plus besoin. Merci aux précieux donateurs qui ont contribué jusqu’à maintenant.
