Did you know that waterborne diseases are the leading cause of death in Burundi? The average Burundian walks 4 miles a day to collect water that is often dirty and contaminated. Imagine how different your life would be if you couldn’t just turn on the tap to brush your teeth, wash clothes, or take a drink.
The Gazelle Foundation’s mission is to improve the quality of life for the people in Burundi Africa by providing access to clean water. They do this through the building of water systems. And just $30 will provide a person in Burundi clean water for life! For more than 11 million people, access to clean water means access to better health, stronger community, jobs, education, and most of all: hope.
Thank you for considering the Gazelle Foundation and donating to my fundraising page.
