“35+ women-led teams. 3,920 water projects. 2M people with clean water — and we’re not finished.”

As our Board Chair Karin steps off after 6 years of service, her message is clear: Your giving matters. Especially now.

Help carry this across the finish line. 💧

“We traveled to South Sudan & saw women repairing wells, leading cooperatives, and transforming entire villages. Water is Basic is working — & we watched it working. We fully support your generosity this year-end.” — Steven & Thai, Water is Basic Supporters 💧

Full-circle moment 💛

Yesterday, founder Steve Roese visited @IrvingBibleCh — the church that helped launch Water is Basic and still walks with us today as we pursue Vision 2030: clean water for all 10 states by 2030.

Thank you for helping finish what you helped start. 💧

This means:
• 13 women equipped as pump mechanics
• Hundreds of wells repaired
• Thousands gaining reliable clean water
• Hours restored to women and girls

Vision 2030 is being built in real time — and you’re part of it.

Because of you, we did it — and then we went further.

On Giving Tuesday, our community raised $37,000+, enough to train 13 new women well-repair leaders across South Sudan.

Asunta’s son saw his mother lead—and it reshaped his future.

This Thanksgiving, we’re grateful for women like Asunta who are changing their communities one repair, one child, one possibility at a time.

We’re thankful for the generous WiB community who believe in this work! 💛

In Alok Payam, one of our pump mechanics—Asunta—was standing with our team when her teenage son asked, “Mummy… how did you bring these important people to our house?”

Then he said something that stunned her: “I want to go to school.”

Just like this team moves the ball forward, women-led repair leaders are restoring wells and bringing clean water back to communities.

This Giving Tuesday, we’re rallying our team — you — to raise $27,500 to train 10 new women well-repair leaders. All gifts matched on 12/2!

Stand with us as we push toward Vision 2030 — woman by woman, well by well.
Together, we’re ending the water crisis from the inside out. 💧

Maria’s story shows why Vision 2030 matters.

In 2023, a crushed hand nearly ended her work as a well mechanic. Thanks to urgent care in Juba, she recovered — and by the end of 2024, she’d repaired 40 wells, restoring clean water across Warrap.

[Water is Basic @waterisbasic]

Despite setbacks, she presses on:
“When I repair the borehole, I earn money better than farming, and my community drinks clean water.”

This year-end, we’re aiming for $300K to launch the next wave of women-led repair teams and double the number of mechanics in the field by 2026.

2 weeks until #GivingTuesday.

One repaired well → exponential momentum.
Fuel the ripple.

A repaired borehole = more time in school, less time walking for water.

Clean water changes everything in Aweil, South Sudan.
