Reflections on a Trip to Africa: Dignity, Faith, and Being Truly Helpful
On a visit with some of our Kenyan partners, Hannah got to see firsthand some of their work in their communities and why we do what we do. Here’s her reflection on the trip and what she learned about creating sustainable change.
World Water Day 2022
The water crisis impacts about 4 out of every 10 people across the globe: 2.1 billion people lack access to safely managed drinking water sources, and 4.5 billion lack safely managed sanitation services. As we approach World Water Day on March 22nd our goal is to raise $75,000 to help our partners continue to address these barriers to education. Thanks to a special matching grant, your gift this month can be MATCHED – dollar for dollar up to $25,000! – enabling our partners to reach TWICE as many people. That’s double the impact.
