The Latest from Thirst Relief International

Well, I finally got this photo uploaded to my own computer today, and I'm SO excited to share it with the rest of you (ummmm, to the maybe 3 people that have read this blog!) So, check this out: 2007 was another wonderful year of growth for our Thirst Relief organization. Our first year, approximately 4,500 people were impacted by having clean drinking water. Last year the number grew to about 28,000 people in many different countries receiving the simple gift of clean drinking water for the first time. This photo shows a new well we recently dug in a poor village in India. Seated in front of the well is a 110 year old woman. Did you catch that? 110 years old! And the village gave her the honor of having the first drink of water from the new well. It's actually amazing that she lived this long without clean water. Now, thankfully, her children, grandchildren, and so on will have access to fresh, CLEAN water.
