Just digging a well is not enough. In every village we drill a well, we also teach sustainable methods that enable the village population to enjoy clean, cold, life giving drinking water. This program establishes a method by which pure water becomes a permanent addition to the health and life of the people in the targeted village.
You can take pleasure in the knowledge that your donation will change many lives in one particularly village, a place you can choose to visit one day, and see first hand the benefit brought to the lives of many children, a gift that will endure for generations to come.
Why Can’t Every Cent Go To Drilling?
Many of the resources that silently deplete many such organizations, are donated without charge to The Clean Water Foundation. This includes office rent, utilities, office services, international and local phone expenses, internet, computers and business equipment, postage, office supplies and other expenses. This overhead is contributed without cost by the founder of our organization, attorney Clifford J. Steele.
Still, there are a few expenses any organization must pay. These include minor costs of stationery, annual corporate fees to the State of Georgia, IRS fees to register as a 501c3 corporation, incorporation fees and other miscellaneous expenses.
It is our goal that 98 cents, or more, of every dollar raised, will be used directly to drill a well or purchase and distribute a bicycle. Compare that to administration heavy organizations, which can expend the greatest percentage of what is collected, on fund raising and other expenses, the majority of the actual contribution never reaching the intended recipient of the donation.
