Wiggins School

PLEASE HELP THE STUDENTS AT THE WIGGINS SCHOOL IN CAMDEN, NJ GIVE THE GIFT OF CLEAN WATER TO A SCHOOL IN TANZANIA, AFRICA

The students at the Wiggins College Preparatory Lab School, a school in Camden, New Jersey, want to make a difference in the world and help to make it a better place. Through the H2O For Life non-profit organization, we will be partnering with the Ipagala School in the developing country of Tanzania, Africa. Through fundraising efforts, we will strive to raise funds for a water project that will bring clean water, sanitary bathroom and handwashing facilities to our partner school in Tanzania. The total cost of the project is $5750.00

Our partner school currently has no access to clean water. By providing this school with access to clean water and sanitation facilities, we will enable more of its students to attend school, since they won’t have to spend their days searching for clean water or being sick at home because they have contracted a water-related disease. Did you know that a child dies every 20 seconds in the world because of unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation?

By helping the students across the globe, we will be learning about the global water crisis and about our partner community in Tanzania. This service-learning project will be a great opportunity for us to help to fix a serious global problem and make a positive difference in the world.
Even though we are planning several fundraisers during the school year, including a tree planting event, a water walk, and other community service-related activities, we know that we cannot reach our lofty goal without your generosity and support.
