LIVING WATER for 8 Million People

Since 2001, Water Mission has served more than 8 million people through the Lord’s provision and people just like you and me.

This year, we served more than 1.9 million people with safe water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) solutions. In addition to meeting these critical physical needs, we had the privilege of sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ with nearly 13,000 men, women, and children. Our love and support reached far and wide: From the Amazon to the Nile, families and entire communities have received lifesaving safe water and the priceless gift of eternal Living Water.

SAFE WATER FOR COMMUNITIES

Safe water is one of the most basic needs for survival, yet 2 billion people around the world lack access. 3.6 billion people live without adequate sanitation, and one out of four people don’t have basic hygiene services at home. Millions of lives are being transformed through WASH solutions! In 2023 alone, generous partners helped us provide ongoing access to safe water to more than 650,000 men, women, and children and first-time access to nearly 136,000 people. More than 16,000 people received sanitation solutions that can lead to healthier, happier, and more productive families.

When WASH needs are met, children can consistently attend school, women no longer walk for hours each day to collect water, and families can invest in their futures.
Water Mission tailors our solutions to each specific context in which we work. In remote communities around the world, we empower leaders to take an active role in the design, construction, and ongoing management of safe water systems.

In 2023, we partnered with 51 communities to provide comprehensive WASH solutions, including access to safe water and the promotion of safe sanitation and hygiene practices. These rural communities are now experiencing collective transformation because of your generosity.

Accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior is the most important decision a person can make, yet more than 3 billion people remain unreached. Water Mission desires that all people have the opportunity to know the Living Water message of Jesus Christ. This is why we intentionally integrate our Living Water program into every aspect of our work. From sharing our faith with those we serve, to showing the Jesus Film in refugee camps, to equipping church leaders, Water Mission is on mission to share God’s love with others.

In 2023, we shared the Living Water message with nearly 13,000 people through various events, including Bible distributions and Jesus Film showings. We also rolled out our Church and Community Mobilization Program (CCMP) in another two countries. CCMP seeks to strengthen and equip the local church—God’s primary agent of transformation—in its mission to help people come into a relationship with Jesus.

CCMP is now integrated with our community-based safe water programming in Indonesia, Kenya, Malawi, Mexico, and Uganda. Thank you for considering partnering with us to bring physical and spiritual transformation to men, women, and children around the world. We truly cannot accomplish this mission without generous men and women who want to share God’s love to those in the greatest need.
