Excerpt from: Change the Counts: LWI and HopeMongers

884 million people in the world don’t have access to safe drinking water. That’s a pretty big problem. 10 or 20 dollars is just a tiny drop in the bucket.

Now, all those drops are having a huge impact. Living Water International has partnered with HopeMongers, a micro-giving community that empowers anyone with $10 to make a lasting difference in the lives of the world’s poor.

On hopemongers.org, you can connect to clean water projects by clicking on “Find Projects” and “Safe Water.” Once you find a project you’re interested in, you can contribute as little as $10 toward that project.

Because of HopeMongers’ broad-based volunteer network, they are able to pass administrative savings directly to donors by charging nothing for the micro-giving services. That means 100% of project gifts are passed directly to partners responsible for the work.

And because HopeMongers is connected to social media sites like Facebook and Twitter, you can easily share your involvement in clean water projects and invite others to join with you. Together, all those tiny little drops can make a lasting difference in the lives of thirsty people around the world.
