Charity:water is all about inspiring generosity and creating positive change. They partner with local heroes worldwide to bring clean water to communities in need. Their Water Programs team dedicates 30% of their time to managing projects on the ground and sharing results with donors through photos and GPS coordinates on Google Maps.
Innovation is at the core of their mission. Charity: water has developed remote sensors to ensure the long-term functionality of water projects, working alongside local leaders and mechanics. Thanks to a small group of private donors covering operating costs, 100% of your donation goes towards providing clean water to those who need it most.
