Team World Vision DIY: 2024

Support Me

Our group of middle school & high school students is giving our Spring Break (April 1-6) to raise $15,000 to fund a well with World Vision.  A well provides life-changing clean water for a community of 300 people in the developing world.  Will you help us provide clean water?  

EVERY $50 = clean water for 1 person for life!  


Clean water helps transform the lives of a community.  No more walking 3.5+miles (6km average distance) to collect & carry home dirty water.  Moms regain time for family and work; girls are able to go to school instead of walking for water.  Kids grow up healthy and clean because now their water doesn't make them sick (800+ children under age 5 die every day from diarrhea).  It's a new day of hope for everyone when there's finally access to clean water!


Thank you to everyone who generously donated on World Water Day (3/22), we received $3,480 in matching funds!!


Our students will be challenged each day in solidarity with those in need!

  • Mon 4/1: fast for lunch, then eating only rice and beans for dinner
  • Tues 4/2: drink water only and walking for any water we need (for 6km walk!
  • Weds 4/3: sleep on the floor under shelters we make
  • Thurs 4/4: wear the same clothes and no showers!
  • Fri 4/5: reach out to others in need to show care
Additionally, our students will host a variety of fundraising & service events throughout the week in the San Ramon area.  Stay tuned for more details to join in if you live locally!
Thank you for all your support and encouragement!  With you, we all GO FARTHER TOGETHER  to bring clean water to those in need!
With gratitude,
The students of San Ramon Presbyterian Church
PS- if you're supporting a particular student, feel free to include a comment of encouragement with their name when you donate!
