WELLS FOR SCHOOLS is and opportunity for passionate and motivated people to raise awareness and funds for safe water for schools in the Ruhaama County of Uganda.

HOW IT WORKS:
In order to do this, we hope to engage friends and neighbors in our community in the global cause of safe water in developing countries. CARY GROVE EVANGELICAL FREE CHURCH hopes to raise $12,000 - amount it costs to to provide a freshwater well and hygiene training for 1 school/village in Uganda. If you want to take this to your child's school you will be equipped with posters, fact sheets, fundraising ideas, and supporting web tools to help them reach their goals. With your help, clean water will change the lives of 20,000 students and their families during critical years of development. |
