10 years. 600,000+ people reached. And we’re not slowing down.
Thanks to Patriots Hall of Famer and 3x Super Bowl Champion Julian Edelman for helping us celebrate a decade of Waterboys impact and the work still ahead.

How are Tanzanian communities #BuiltByWater?
Hear it directly from Zulfa Jumanne, an 8 year-old student from Fundah School for the Deaf, where Waterboys built a solar-powered deep borehole well that serves the school and surrounding community.

Through HometownH2O, we recently helped provide a new well for a family of three in OK.
Dana takes care of her grandson and her son, who faces ongoing medical challenges from brain surgery. Without regular running water, the family previously needed to haul water from the city.
Ten climbs. Endless ripples. Conquering Kili 2026 marked our 10th summit of Mount Kilimanjaro to raise funds and awareness for Waterboys clean water projects in Tanzania. As we celebrate 10 years of impact, the work continues. Join us: https://t.co/pu6EORf9Ho

WE CONQUERED IT!
We summited Mount Kilimanjaro and we're resting for the night.
10 Climbs. One Mission. Waterboys has served over 600,000 people with lasting clean water in East Africa and the United States. We climb Kilimanjaro to help Waterboys reach one million.
We lost reception, but we’re back!
We crossed the stunning Shira Plateau to Moir Camp, taking time to acclimatize before a classic “hike high, sleep low” day past Lava Tower and down to Barranco Camp. Every step is building toward what’s ahead.
Photos from the last few days ⬇️
The Conquering Kili cohort set off on our 7-day trek up Mount Kilimanjaro yesterday morning and ended up at Shira camp, which sits at an elevation of 11,844 feet (3,400 meters).

Yesterday, the Conquering Kili cohort visited Olmolog, where a Waterboys well began flowing 3 years ago.
Today, their well serves a primary school of 700 students, a health clinic, and more than 5,000 people.
@JOEL9ONE and our Kili crew wrapped the visit with some football!
6 days, 5 campsites, and a 20,000 foot ascent.
