Why Gardena Valley Baptist Church is fundraising for clean water

Christmas is a time for family, celebrating the birth of Christ and love.

It’s also a time when America spends around $500 billion on Christmas gifts. That's more than $600 per person. This Christmas, we're taking a step back -- and want to give more than gifts that fit in boxes.

We want to give people life.

800 million people are living without clean drinking water on our planet. Some walk miles every day to get to the nearest source: a stagnant, parasite-infested stream or pond.

Our mission is to give clean water for Christmas this year. 100% of every dollar we raise will go directly to water projects. And when the projects are complete, charity: water will show us GPS coordinates, photos and other details about the communities we've helped. Please join us by donating.
