The Well Project aims to invest $500,000 to implement 100 sustainable well projects in Tanzania through partnerships with the World Bank and Charity Water. Only 54% of Tanzania's population currently has access to clean water. The wells are expected to benefit over 6 million people through improved health, education, economic opportunities, and political stability. Charity Water will oversee the projects and ensure wells are managed by local water boards.
