Hi. We’re charity: water. 

If we lost you at ‘charity’, we get it. Give us a moment to change your mind?

At charity: water, we’re known for telling great stories, but we’re big believers in numbers too. 

Like this one: 703 million. That’s how many people worldwide currently live without access to clean, safe drinking water. 

As a result, 4,400 lives will be lost today. 

And again tomorrow. 

And the day after that. 

It’s a big problem — massive, really — but we know we can solve it. 

To do that we need to make every penny count. 

Which means when you donate $1, exactly $1 goes to water projects where they’re needed most.  

Not 83 cents on the dollar, not even 99 cents. 

The whole dollar. 

No fine print. No hidden fees. 

A group of private donors generously covers our operating costs, which means we can proudly promise that every penny of every donation goes here … or here … or here … 

We’re obsessive about our 100% promise, and have been from the start. 

But we don’t just say it. 

We prove it. 

With beautiful stories, sure. 

But also with cold, hard facts. 

GPS coordinates. Audited financial statements. 

Transparency & accountability that go above and beyond what’s expected of us. 

So you can see your impact in black and white — and in living color too. 

Because seeing is believing. 

And in a world where it can be tough to believe in organizations and institutions, you can believe in us. 

And our whole-hearted commitment to ending the world water crisis — for good. 

Give with confidence, and watch your gift make a tangible difference.
