“Blood:Water Mission allows you to create and register your own campaign in however you see best to bring people together in your own community and build a bridge of love to help our neighbors around the world.”
Blood:Water Mission also includes ideas they’ve established themselves and given to readers, challenging participants to partake in events that also help raise funds. One of these is called “2 Weeks of Sacrifice” wherein you simply save the money you would have spent on anything you would drink (besides tap water) and using the intended drink money towards supporting Blood:Water Mission. Saving money from the morning orange juice, coffee you’d buy, the soda you’d drink for lunch or dinner, or any other occasion, you’d see how quickly it adds up. Blood:Water Mission asks that you’d make water your only beverage for two weeks and thus allowing someone to have clean water for a lifetime! Blood:Water Mission allows you to create and register your own campaign in however you see best to bring people together in your own community and build a bridge of love to help our neighbors around the world. All donor funds go directly toward serving the vision of empowering communities to work together against the HIV/AIDS and water crises in Africa. The truth is that all of us carry the power to bring change. We carry the ability to care for others and help our neighbors. May our concept of neighbor be broadened to the people we share this world with. May our box of influence be torn down to contain no walls or limitations. For we no longer live in a day and age where our efforts can’t affect those far from us. Our efforts can reach all the way around the world. For more information you can visit www.bloodwatermission.com where you can learn about the organization, download an extensive amount of resources from campaign kits, videos, and photos to print materials, campaign ideas, and online resources. Or, you can simply donate as well by clicking the “DONATE” button on the homepage. Jars of Clay saw a need and decided to act, now we have the same opportunity to affect change in people’s lives around the world from the comforts of our own community. You have the power to bring about that change… what will you do with it?
