The holiday season is filled with giving. We shop for gifts, wrap boxes, decorate our homes, and look for ways to show appreciation to the people we love. It’s a season of abundance, generosity, and reflection.
Yet while many of us are surrounded by gifts during the holidays, millions of families around the world are still missing one of the most basic necessities of life: clean water.
As we think about meaningful ways to give this season, there is an opportunity to offer a gift that lasts far beyond the holidays: the gift of safe, reliable drinking water.
Clean Water Is a Basic Human Need
Clean water is not a luxury. It is a basic human necessity — essential for health, education, and survival. Without access to safe drinking water, families are forced to rely on contaminated sources, leading to preventable illnesses, waterborne diseases, and long-term health challenges.
In many rural communities across Africa, women and children spend hours each day walking long distances to collect unsafe water.
Girls often miss school because clean water and safe sanitation facilities are unavailable. When water is scarce or contaminated, entire communities remain trapped in cycles of hardship and poverty.
Access to clean water changes everything:
- Improves health and reduces disease
- Increases school attendance
- Frees time for education and work
- Strengthens families and communities
A single clean water source can transform daily life.
How Embrace Relief’s Clean Water Program Is Making a Difference
Embrace Relief’s Clean Water Program is dedicated to delivering long-term, sustainable water solutions to communities in need.
Since 2013, the program has:
- Built and restored 1,200+ deep-aquifer water wells
- Provided clean water access to over 1.2 million people
- Reached underserved communities across Africa
These water wells are designed for durability and safety. They are drilled deep into protected underground aquifers to reduce contamination and ensure consistent access to safe drinking water.
Each project includes:
- A five-year warranty
- Annual maintenance checks
- Long-term sustainability planning
One clean water well can serve hundreds — often thousands — of people every day. Beyond drinking water, these projects support sanitation, hygiene, education, and community stability.
