Sponsor a Fundraiser
Fundraising Tips
Over the years many individual citizens and churches have sponsored fund raisers for W.A.T.E.R. in their homes, at churches and at other locations. The concept is that you bring your friends, church goers or family together with the intent of raising money for a borehole or contributing to one with whatever amount you manage to raise. Many occur during the second half of the calendar year as a means to raise tax deductable funds, collect in lieu of Christmas gifts, etc. This is also consistent with the West African drilling season which begins in December and runs through around June (depending on when the rainy season starts).
