Wells Bring Hope is a non‑profit committed to drilling wells to bring safe water to rural villages in Niger, West Africa. Niger is a place where contaminated water kills innocent victims, most often infants and young children. One out of seven children will die before the age of 5. 40% have trachoma, which leads to blindness when untreated. 85% of women cannot read or write.

There is more to this sad story.

The burden of getting water falls upon women and girls, who walk 4–6 back‑breaking miles every day of their lives to find water. The result? Girls don't go to school— they must help their mothers with this difficult task. Women have no time to work to earn money to improve their quality of life. When a well is drilled, 250–300 ft.

into the ground, lives are transformed instantly. They have hope for their future. Water‑borne diseases are virtually eliminated. Child mortality drops by 70+%. Education becomes a reality for girls. Women are given micro‑financing tools and education, which enables them to start small businesses and help provide for their families.

Wells Bring Hope drills wells to bring safe water to rural villages in Niger, West Africa, the poorest country in the world. We are committed to saving lives with safe water and providing sustainable solutions to transform lives. The burden of fetching water falls upon women, preventing the young girls from attending school and women from working productively for their families.

Not only do we drill wells, but we also provide micro‑finance training for women after their time is freed up from the endless walking to get water for their families.

We are an all‑volunteer organization, with just one paid employee, and we look upon our volunteers as essential team members who all work together to save lives with safe water in West Africa.

Your volunteering is more than just a drop in the bucket. It transforms lives for generations to come.

Thank you and we look forward to hearing from you!
