Living Water International (Living Water) exists to demonstrate the love of God by helping communities in 18 developing countries acquire desperately needed clean water and to experience "living water" - the gospel of Jesus Christ.
WATER PROJECTS - WASH ACTIVITIES: Living Water trains and equips staff, organizations and volunteers to help developing communities gain access to safe drinking water through the construction of new bore holes, filtration systems, rainwater harvesting as well as the rehabilitation of existing systems that have fallen into disrepair.
