JOIN OUR WATER FOR LIFE SPONSORS

Help turn one special evening into safe drinking water for students across Tanzania. Sponsorship opportunities begin at $1,000.

No child should become sick because of the water they drink.

Purify Project is dedicated to bringing clean, safe drinking water to children, families, and communities across Tanzania. With your support, we’re improving health, expanding educational opportunities, and creating brighter futures—one cup of clean water at a time.

Purify Project

FILL A CUP WITH YOUR GENEROSITY.


There are two ways you can help support our important mission: donate your time and talents, or make a financial contribution. Our mission relies on the generosity of people like you who want to take action to improve the lives of children a world away.  

Purify Project is always in need of capable volunteers to travel to Tanzania to visit sites, work in the schools, and help qualified local contractors install purification systems.

Your thoughtful donation will support the efforts of volunteers to provide clean water in remote villages so that children are able to learn freely, while being healthy.

66 Schools Transformed, 25 more waiting...

Purify Project has installed water purification systems in 66 school systems across Tanzania, providing thousands of students with access to safe drinking water every day. We’ve identified 25 more schools ready for installation and continue evaluating additional schools, hospitals, and universities as we work toward a future where everyone has access to clean water.

CLEAN WATER AND HOPE FOR A HEALTHIER FUTURE

An ongoing problem for school children in Tanzania is stomach illness caused by contaminated drinking water that comes from various sources—including surface runoff, municipal pipe systems, rainwater and wells.

The Purify Project identifies communities suffering from water-related illnesses. Then, we place purification systems in key locations, giving children access to clean water so they can reach their full potential.

POOR SANITATION AND CONTAMINATED WATER ARE LINKED TO TRANSMISSION OF DISEASES SUCH AS CHOLERA, DYSENTERY, HEPATITIS A AND TYPHOID.​

MORE THAN 3,000 CHILDREN UNDER FIVE DIE ANNUALLY DUE TO ILLNESS CAUSED BY POOR WATER AND SANITATION IN TANZANIA.
