About the Leigh High School Embrace Relief Club
We are a group of 5 students from Leigh High School in San Jose, California, who want to bring awareness to the global issue of access to clean water. We wish to help those who don’t have access to clean water by raising money to open a water well. We have opened a club in our high school as an Embrace Relief Group FUNdraising chapter to draw attention to the clean water crisis in Africa. We are raising money to build a water well in Africa, that will serve up to 2,000 people daily.
Why Clean Water Matters
This project is important to our Embrace Relief club because we believe that clean water is a basic human right that everyone deserves access to. Furthermore, easy access to clean water improves sanitation conditions and hygienic practices that will minimize waterborne diseases such as typhoid, cholera, dysentery, and more. It will also improve the economy, education, and agriculture because people will not have to walk miles to collect clean water. Please, help us supply a community experiencing a water crisis access to clean useable water.
