How much of my donation goes to clean water and How does the 100% model work?
We fundraise for our operational costs separately (ex: accounting, tax compliance filings, subscriptions like our website/domain/cloud platform). Because of this model, we can assure donors that 100% of all donations go directly to our clean water programs in Latin America. In addition to supply/material and community training costs, this includes expenses for our in country teams to plan, implement, and maintain water systems.

We currently don’t have a central office. Contact us if you need an address to mail a donation.
