World Water Day 2015

Did you know March 22 is World Water Day. The UN deemed this year's theme to be water and sustainable development. The Living Water Project seeks to be part of that each and every time we fund a well by providing maintenance training and forming a water committee to ensure it has local, unbiased ownership. 

Will you join us in celebrating the gift of clean, affordable water by donating the amount of your water bill (or more!) to The Living Water Project? Donations can be made online at www.livingwaterwells.org/donate/ or by check to The Living Water Project, 409 Franklin Road, Brentwood, TN 37027.
