Across Nicaragua’s mountainous and rural regions there is an acute lack of access to safe, clean drinking water. People rely on rivers that frequently slow to a trickle or dry out entirely.
Lack of access to potable water is not only extremely detrimental to health – especially that of children – it also impedes economic and social development.
Women and children spend a considerable portion of each day seeking water, which takes time away from other important activities such as school, work, and time with family.
Thank you for stepping up to fulfill Jesus’ words in Matthew 25:35, “I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink.”
Gifts received above a specific need will be used for programs where the need is the greatest.
