The Thirst Project
The thirst project is a group of students that helps other countries that don't have clean water get a clean source of it. It was founded in 2007 when a college student got together with seven other college friends. They got together 70 dollars which they didn't think was a lot but at the end, they managed to buy 1000 bottles of water which is a ton. The solution to other countries not having clean water is building a well that has clean water in it that the whole community can go to and drink instead of walking miles to gather dirty water. The price to build a well ranges prices depending on what places they are planning to build one in. For example, it costs 7800$ to build it in Uganda but 20,000$ to build it in Kenya.
All we have to do to help is just donate a bit. Even a dollar can save a live. All I did was ask my mom for a dollar and i told her that it was for a special cause. I told her it was to help people in other places that don't have fresh water to get a water well built. Just think about how many people will be saved if there is a fresh water source in their community. We can make a difference in many people's lives just by donating as little as a dollar.
I feel really bad knowing that other people dont have a clean water source like we do. They have to go around drinking and bathing with dirty water that will most likely give them diseases. I haven't witnessed a lack of clean water in any place that I've been to but I know that there's many countries around the world that are. This is why we need to take care of our water. We never know when the time will come where we don't have any clean water so we'll have to resort to using dirty water just like other people do. Just a dollar could make a gigantic difference in someone else's life.
