This daily trek leads to health issues, keeps kids out of school, and traps communities in poverty. My heart broke when I heard a young girl say her dream was to go to school someday. I realized something as basic as access to a clean water source nearby could make education a possibility for her and so many others.

It was then I began researching charitable organizations working to provide wells to rural communities in Africa. Embrace Relief stood out for its holistic approach – they not only fund wells, but work closely with each village on sustainability, providing training on maintenance and repair of pumps. They partner with local crews, not only providing clean water access but also creating jobs. Embrace Relief also helps villages establish local governing committees to manage the wells.

I knew I had found my chance to help change lives. By supporting Embrace Relief to open new wells, I'm partnering in empowering communities towards health, education and economic mobility. A basic necessity like water can rewrite destinies when made accessible. I'm committed to be a part of this incredible transformation through my giving.
