The Source is where change begins.
The Source is WaterSchool’s monthly giving community. Our monthly donors are people who believe that clean water is the foundation for health, opportunity and lasting change.
For just $45 a month, you ensure that another family in Uganda has access to clean, safe water — and the tools and knowledge to transform their health. These changes empower families to pursue education, business, community investment and a brighter, more just future for their children.
And it all starts at The Source.
$45 a month - here’s what your gift does:
Clean, safe water
SODIS solar disinfection training that turns contaminated water into safe drinking water — for free, forever.
Habits for health
Hygiene and sanitation training, tippy taps, safe latrines — the practices that keep waterborne illness away.
A future beyond water
Time and health returned to a family: school attendance, small businesses, community investment.
Why give monthly?
It’s simple
Monthly giving is an easy way to ensure your gifts reach the people who need them — creating lasting impact one month at a time.
It’s flexible
You can start, adjust, pause or stop your support at any time, so your giving always fits your circumstances.
It’s support we can count on
Consistent monthly support lets our team plan ahead and deliver reliable, long-term clean water solutions to the communities we serve.
A proven solution — not a promise.
Over the past four years we have tracked waterborne illness in every household we partner with. The results are why monthly support matters: it lets us keep going, community by community.
16,119 households reached in 2025
100% decline in diarrhea in 2025
96.75% average reduction over four years
““We take the accessibility of safe water for granted in North America. What WaterSchool does is critical and changes everything for the people the organization serves.”
