Water Changes Everything
2010 Goal: 400 wells in 20 nations
"He who refreshes others will himself be refreshed." (Proverbs 11:25)
Haiti Relief: Through the ongoing Water for LIFE program already in Haiti, your support will help restore 200 water wells on the island, providing desperately needed clean water.
LIFE Outreach International is excited to enter its 11th year of Mission: Water for Life. This life-giving outreach is one of the most, practical and exciting demonstrations of God’s love among the poor because clean water changes everything in life.
Sadly, clean water is often unattainable to the poor because of the cost and equipment necessary to dig deep enough to reach it. When we see the thirsty, the love of Christ compels us to “refresh others” with the gift of life. That is the heart of Jesus and His commission to us.
Mission: Water for LIFE not only delivers fresh, clean water with every well, but the wells become an ongoing witness of the love of God in the community. Every well is a wonderful gift of life, made possible by friends in “distant lands.”
In the past 10 years, a staggering amount of clean water has been produced through the drilling of fresh water wells. With more than 2500 wells now in use, each serving an average of 1000 people, the estimated number of changed lives reaches 2.5 million.
The average cost of each well is $4,800. Each well provides water for an average of 1,000 people or more. This means that a child can receive a lifetime of clean water for as little as $4.80.
$24 will help provide clean water for 5 people
$48 will help provide uncontaminated water for 10 people
$72 will help provide fresh water for 15 people
$144 dollars will help provide for 30 people
$1,200 can be combined with 3 other friends to help drill a complete well
$4,800 will enable us to drill and install a complete well
