goal
We all have something in common, we need fresh water; water without harmful bacteria, and that we don't have to spend all day to acquire.
Many of you also have this in common, we need to provide health and well being to our children - our most important task.
I couldn't imagine my life if I had to spend all day getting water for my children to drink, and even then, knowing it could harm them.
This has been on Rachel's and my heart for quite some time. We want to build a well for a village that needs it, by providing the funds to do so. So kids and their parents can have fresh water, and can spend their days earning a wage, instead of just surviving.
A single well provides for a whole village, and an inscription sits next to the well that tells them about the living water also available to them, which is Jesus Christ. Watch the video at the bottom of the page for a quick breakdown.
This goes through GFA (Gospel For Asia), a trusted organization that Rachel and I have supported for more than 10 years. The well will likely be in India.
Help us help those who can't provide basics for their kids, prevent illness, and volunteer to use our abundance to change lives. It starts here!
Rachel and I will kick start this by donating $300 towards the goal. Every tax-deductible bit helps! Skip a Starbucks one day and send $5? Make burgers at home instead this weekend and send $50?... we got this!
Read below to learn about where donations go.
Jesus Wells increase the health standards of a village, allowing for children to be nourished and animals to be watered. The wells you provide are located in the village or community, so women and children no longer have to walk hours to find water.
With one well you can save an entire village from waterborne illnesses.
Unlike the dirty water from stagnant ponds, streams or old shallow wells, this water is clean and creates an awareness of good hygiene, leading to fewer medical problems and healthier people.
About GFA World
Since 1979, GFA has existed to fulfill one passion: See communities in Asia and Africa discover the same joy, hope and lasting peace we’ve found in Christ.
We serve to equip missionaries to minister throughout Asia. The projects funded through myGFA each play a significant part in helping missionaries serve more effectively and in transforming communities with the love of Christ.
GFA World is dedicated to the most effective and efficient stewardship of resources, according to 1 Corinthians 3:12-14. Contributions to GFA are income tax deductible to the full extent allowed by law. All gift options represent GFA's actual ministry efforts to meet the diverse needs of individuals and communities. GFA World seeks to use contributions raised for a particular ministry in furtherance of that charitable objective, but retains control and discretion over all donated funds to further its overall charitable objectives.
