Operation Fresh Water Fundraiser

Today I had the privilege of joining my friends Isaac and Drew on a short trip to Western Christian High School in West Covina. The school is only a few blocks away from Life Pacific, and Isaac has a connection with one of the teachers there. We were invited to the chapel and Isaac was able to tell his story to the students of Western. Isaac is a Kenyan who came to California to go to Bible College. He has begun a project that is his opportunity to give back to the community he came from. The town of Burlagate, Kenya is in need of a sustainable water source since they are outside of the provision of the municipal water supply in Nanyuki, Kenya. Isaac is raising funds to drill a well in Burlagate. This is a difficult project because there are not other non-profit companies that drill in Kenya. Generally speaking, Kenya has a sufficient water supply. Since this particular community is in need and no one else can drill this well, the costs are much higher than in other countries. Still Isaac has been pursuing this goal for some time, and every dollar counts. Today we sold water bottles with custom labels on them. For every bottle sold, 100% of the profit goes to drill this borehole. If you are interested in any more details you can check out his website. This project needs your support and I have greatly enjoyed working with Isaac. Contact him if you have any creative ideas or would like to be involved. I plan on posting any updates whenever Operation Fresh Water organizes any more fundraisers.
