What is the thirst project? The thirst project is an organization that helps countries who don't have clean water. The problem the organization is trying to solve is clean water to drink and washing cloths. Another example is so women and children don't have to travel miles just for water. The solution to the problem is water. The organization was born of 8 college kids who went to Hollywood boulevard who gave out water bottles to get people to talk to them. the They put there money together which was $70 that later turn into $1700. From there they were asked to go to schools and churches. A pump cost $7,800 to $20,000. Some of the countries the organization is helping is Uganda and Kenya. Clean water is very important it can cause disease. Some of the disease are skin rashes, cancer, and reproductive problems. You can help just by donating a penny or the change that you found under the coach. I raised my dollar by asking my friends and family. I was asked what the thirst project was and i said an organization to bring clean water to countries who don't have any. I felt good asking people for help because it was for a good reason. I also felt good because i helped the world just by a little thing that i did. We can all change the world one step at a time just like the college kids who started with the organization.
