Service clubs and organisations
WaterAid/ Mani Karmacharya
Aspara lives in a remote part of Nepal, an area significantly threatened by changes to the environment. Access to clean water, toilets and good hygiene is a daily struggle. But over the course of the next three years, we plan to repair and rebuild 30 broken water systems in Aspara’s district, reaching 6,000 people.
But we can’t do it alone. Can your club help us? Pledge to raise £1,000 or more towards our Nepal project, and we’ll send you and your club biannual reports on how your support is transforming lives in one of the most remote areas of the world.
Together, we can spark lasting change with access to clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene. Together, we can ensure Aspara, and many others like her in Nepal, realise their potential.
If your club would like to request a project proposal or make a pledge, email supportercare@wateraid.org or call 020 7793 4594.
