Why Stephanie (Johnston) Jacobs 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 everyone!

    I'm writing to provide an update on the Charity: water birthday campaign you donated to in September 2017. You may have periodically received updates from Charity: water directly, and if you've been following Lovelight stories, you likely have heard the news! Our campaign dollars were put to work over the last two years in helping to fund 2 water projects in Mozambique! The water projects in Triangulo and Napera were completed last month and the communities are celebrating the gift of clean water! Thank you to your generous hearts for contributing to the betterment of others' lives!

    My latest story at Lovelight stories provides a quick highlight of the work done by Charity: water with links to reports on both projects you helped fund! It also links to a story highlighting Charity: water from last year, and kicks off a new story about MAP International. You can check out the story here, and sign-up for similar monthly stories right to your inbox! https://www.lovelightstories.com/stories/2019/9/6/medicine-for-the-world

    Thank you all, and blessings!
