From the Founder of Untappedhope Swanzeta Nciweni.

I met a friend in 2006 who told me that as a child he suffered from Typhoid fever as a result of drinking dirty water. From the point on, I pledge to do whatever I could to help people get access to clean water. Over the past four years, I have traveled to the developing world researching the issue of water scarcity. I decided to create my own NGO that would allow me to campaign for these countries. The goals of my organization are simple;

Our goals are to draw attention to the world's number one health problem, unsafe and inadequate water supplies, and to raise funds to help fight this immense problem - one community at a time. Our mission is to inspire people to act

Around the world, 750 million men, women and children need access to safe water. This negatively impacts their health, keeps children from attending school, and traps millions of people in a cycle of poverty. This all changes when solutions to access safe water are implemented.

I know there are a lot of worthy charities out there. I’ve created my own fundraiser for Water.org because I believe safe water is necessary for life. The water crisis is something I feel I can help solve. I hope you agree by giving whatever amount you can to support my efforts.

For every $25 that I raise, Water.org can give someone access to safe water. Co-founded by Matt Damon and Gary White, Water.org has been helping people develop sustainable solutions for more than 20 years. Together, we can change lives with safe water.
