About me:

Co-founded by Matt Damon and Gary White, Water.org is a nonprofit organization that has transformed hundreds of communities in Africa, South Asia, and Central America by providing access to safe water and sanitation. Water.org traces its roots back to the founding of WaterPartners in 1990. In July 2009, WaterPartners merged with H2O Africa, resulting in the launch of Water.org. Water.org works with local partners to deliver innovative solutions for long-term success. Its microfinance-based WaterCredit Initiative is pioneering sustainable giving in the sector.

We envision the day when everyone in the world can take a safe drink of water. Please join us - We can't do it without you. Thank you for your support and compassion for those in need of safe water!

Who I'd like to meet:

Interests

  • General

  • Heroes

    Everyone working to fight the global water crisis.

    Why?

    Because for children under age five, water-related diseases are the leading cause of death. 4,900 children die every day from water-related disease - one child every 15 seconds.

    Because one in eight people lack access to a safe water supply, and 2.5 billion people in the world lack access to a basic toilet.

    Just $25 can bring clean water to someone in the developing world for life.

    YOU make our life-saving work possible!

    African Orphanages, European Orphanages, Asian Orphanages

    Holiday greetings from the hearts of the African orphans to your heart. How overwhelmed the orphans would be if they could see for themselves the bounty that most of us take for granted.
    How overwhelmed we would be if we had to live for one day in the extreme poverty on the streets of the cities and villages in Africa!

    Orphans who are blessed to have been taken into an orphanage have been given a gift from someone who decided to sponsor an orphan and share their plenty with an orphan child who had nothing.


    Sponsor an orphan that is suffering because of poverty and enjoy a real Holiday experience! Feed the children and you will be filled with the joy of providing comfort and hope to one who has known little of either during their brief lives.
    Blessings to you on behalf of the orphanages of the world and Hearth to Hearth Ministries' orphans and orphanages.

    Take action to keep our water clean!

    Right now dirty polluters are trying to break down protections and safeguards our waters have enjoyed for over 35 years..

    The Clean Water Restoration Act would restore the original intent of the Clean Water Act, the law that has protected our communities from pollution and cleaned up our nation's water -- water that kids can play in, water that supports healthy fish and wildlife populations, and water that is free from dangerous pollution..

    Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays WaterPartners,

    I wanted to drop you a note to thank you for graciously taking the time to listen to our music. I sincerely appreciate the gesture and am humbled that you enjoyed the material enough to add us to your community of friends. After all, having people connect with our music is why we do this.

    At this time of year, we have a bit of a tradition. As a thank you for your support, we make the LEMON Christmas song, "What I Want for Christmas" available to you as a FREE download on our profile. I hope you'll accept it as a small token of our gratitude.

    I hope you'll have occasion to drop by soon and let us know what you're up to.

    All my best and thank you again,

    Roger
