goal
As a cyclist, I understand the value of water (H2O). There's nothing better than a drink of cool, refreshing water during a long bike ride. Not only is fresh water a pleasure and a blessing, it's essential for life!
As someone who thinks nothing of turning on the kitchen faucet, it amazes me that there are so many places in the world were people do not have access to clean potable water. I love to ride. Last year I rode over 2,200 miles. Aside from improved health, I have nothing to show for it. This year I've decided to ride for a cause: building fresh water wells for villages in need. My goal is to raise $1 for every mile I've committed to riding this season.
Would you be willing to support me in my goal to bring fresh water to those who need it? Check out the information below. 100% of your donations go directly to creating those wells.

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.
