Water. We drink it, cook with it, bathe in it, sprinkle our lawns with it, fill our backyard swimming pools with it - even create theme parks based on it.

We take its abundance for granted, but in much of the world, especially Sub-Saharan Africa, access to clean water is a luxury. More than half of Africa's villages lack access to a clean water supply. In many of these villages, women must walk up to ten miles every day to retrieve the day's supply of potable water for their households.

Volunteer for africa (VFA) believes that access to safe, consumable water is not merely a basic human need, but a basic human right. Our goal is to raise money for the construction and maintenance of clean water wells in Sub-Saharan Africa.

You can help us reach that goal. You can make a difference. Your donation today will build wells and will save lives.
