Water 4 Life - The YES Club at Aliso Niguel High School is about generosity and caring for others. It’s about becoming part of a solution to a world-wide problem by providing clean water for people in need.
Why? Because changing the world changes us, and clean water changes everything!
In 2014, ANHS students from the Water 4 Life Club funded their first well. Through personal giving and fundraising, they raised enough money to drill a well in Leon, Nicaragua. Completed in December 2014 the well provides safe, clean water to hundreds of families in need.
Our goal this year is to raise at least $7,500 to drill a second well in Central America.
- Nearly 700 million people in the world don't have access to clean water.
- 443 million school days are lost each year due to water-related illness.
- A child dies every 21 seconds from a water related disease.
- An estimated 200 million hours are spent each day globally collecting water. That’s equivalent to 100,000 people working for an entire year – every single day!
