My Mission:

My mission is not only to provide the tools necessary to help out the 1.1 billion people who lack safe drinking water but to raise awareness on the topic as well. 1 out of every 6 people worldwide still lack access to the earths most overlooked and precious resource, water. In the time it took you to read what was written above, a child died from a water-borne illness such as diarrhea(1 every 20 seconds or 5,000 children a day). It's easy to overlook the seriousness of this issue as we waste water like it's going out of style whether it be our pools, water parks, and even bottled water. Not only is this water needed to quench the thirst of those living in developing countries but it's needed for hygiene practices and most importantly, agriculture which dominates many of these countries economies. I'm dedicating my life(for now) to making sure I can do everything I can both domestically and internationally to help tackle this very important issue.

Happy Holidays!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from everyone at WWTFG. Today is also a day for reflection for all of those who just ask for safe water each year. Our goal by next Christmas is to provide safe water to at least 500 people. Our campaign will be on the ground finally in 3 weeks! The shirts made by Gosa for Good are completed, so if you would like to help support us(100% of the proceeds go to WWTFG) you can contact me and I'll deliver it to you or you can order a shirt over the online store.

Peace to all and enjoy your holiday season,
Christian
