$314K Raised to Bring the Gift of Clean Water
The Problem
Very Little Fresh Water
Contaminated Water Causes Disease
Nearly 1,000 children under age 5 die every day from diarrhea and diseases caused by contaminated water and poor hygiene. Waterborne diseases are the top treatable health condition in many countries lacking clean water.
Acquiring Water Takes Time and is Dangerous
In developing nations women and girls spend much time retrieving water making it difficult to attend school or develop a vocation. And many are attacked or raped en route while fetching water.
Our History
In 2011, the pastor of Ingomar Church outside of Pittsburgh Pennsylvania shared a video produced by Advent Conspiracy. It was a startling fact that while Americans spend approximately $450B a year on Christmas, it would only take $20B to provide clean drinking water solutions around the world. The church responded by raising about $100K in the next three months. And these initial efforts grew into Ingomar Living Waters.
Our Mission
Bringing the gift of clean water to the world.
There are 663 million people without access to clean water. This leads to unnecessary disease, suffering, and death as well as perpetuates a level of poverty with time and resources dedicated to simply surviving. Our mission is to provide the world with clean water.
Rather than recreate the wheel, our approach is to work with on-the-ground partners all over the world who implement clean water solutions and sanitation facilities and provide hygiene education. We qualify and monitor those partners and through them are able to reach just about anywhere on earth where clean water is needed.
“…I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink.”
Matthew 25:35
