Haiti Water Relief

Summary

Provide Emergency Clean Water to hospitals and people of Haiti in response to the devastating earthquake. Fresh water to be sent in FDA approved 3.5 gallon rugged WaterBrick containers.

What is the issue, problem, or challenge?

With tens of thousands of Haitians dead and government in disarray, people are in dire need of water. People cannot survive long without water, and without clean water, the likelihood increased disease rises dramatically. Anyone in need of water or water and food storage containers in Haiti will be the beneficiary of this project.

How will this project solve this problem?

Manufacturing, filling and transporting as many WaterBrick containers with fresh water (3.4 gallons each) to Haiti as possible.

Potential Long Term Impact

Many of Haiti’s people will be saved from death by thirst, and even more from preventable waterborne diseases and illnesses contracted through drinking unsafe water.

Project Message

Haiti has lost enough family members due to its earthquake; together, let’s prevent them from losing more because they had nothing to drink.
- Wendell Adams, Founder

This project is being run by a socially-oriented for-profit company.

From time to time, GlobalGiving posts projects run by socially-oriented for-profit companies, whose work includes charitable activities in the public interest. ALL projects on GlobalGiving have a bonafide charitable purpose, and are required to submit extensive documentation and complete a thorough application process. GlobalGiving reviews all applications, and vets the projects to ensure they are legitimate, well-run, and satisfy IRS guidelines for international grantmaking as well as the new voluntary guidelines for anti-terrorism set forth in the Patriot Act. Provided projects meet all these criteria, the IRS allows public foundations such as GlobalGiving to make grants in support of this work.

Projects in this category are required to undergo an expenditure review - meaning they must detail the charitable activities for which they are requesting funding, and provide an actual review of how the funds were spent.
