Project Details:

Your clean-water project has made an eternal impact. Children will now have enough water so they can stay hydrated, which will help them do better in school. They will no longer suffer from water-related illnesses. And adults will have sufficient water for all their daily needs.

Argelia Gomez García

Argelia, 67, used to walk five times a week to the nearest pond to collect water for drinking and cooking. The water was dirty, often filled with animal waste and other debris. But thanks to the well you provided in her community, she now has plenty of clean water. "We were exposed to contracting a disease," she said, "but now we are not worried about this. God bless you."

Our Financial Commitment

Your gift will be used exclusively for the exempt purposes of World Help, a 501(c)(3) organization, and will be considered tax-deductible to the full extent allowed under the federal tax laws. You should consult with your personal income tax advisor for more guidance about your individual tax situation. Gifts are considered to be without restriction unless explicitly stipulated by the donor. All restricted gifts for a specific project receive an administrative assessment, which is used to offset administrative and fundraising costs.

If contributed funds exceed the specific need of a project, or due to unforeseen circumstances the project cannot be completed, those funds will be used where they will make the greatest impact to fulfill the mission and purpose of World Help. You can access World Help’s full financial reports at worldhelp.net/financials.

You may also request a hard copy, as well as descriptions of World Help’s programs, by calling 800-541-6691.
