World Water Day

Today is World Water Day.  A day of the year set aside to raise awareness and remind us of the global crisis that is a reality for over 1 billion people.  So today we remember those who suffer, with no access to clean water to drink.

It’s a nice gesture… but what about tomorrow, the day after that, next month?

The 410 Bridge serves in 12 communities in Kenya most of which don’t need a World Water Day to remind them of the reality that they live with every day.  As we work to help enable the self-developing capabilities of the people we serve, water is not only something to drink, it is the foundation their sustainability as a community is built on.  Water impacts health care, education, enterprise, and ultimately the spiritual development within a community.

Our goal is to work through local churches and indigenous leadership in 410 Bridge communities to partner together to find long-term sustainable solutions to the water problems in each community.

We can’t do this alone…

H2O4K (Water for Kenya) was created to give people just like you the opportunity to be a part of the solution to the water crisis in Kenya.  Check out the video and a link for more information below for three different ways to get involved.

  A Note from Our Founder

If we’ve spent any time together, you’ve probably heard me this before: pay attention to who walks through the front door. 

That was some early advice from my friend, Lanny, and it held the test of time. It’s important to keep a lookout for people suddenly crossing your path – God just might be introducing you to someone special. So, when Chris Joiner walked through our front door, I paid attention.  

In 2021, Chris reached out just to have a conversation. Over a few breakfasts, Chris and I discussed our shared passion for changing the way the West church engages the poor. At the time, Chris was working for another non-profit organization, but it quickly became clear that we both sought to create a lasting, meaningful impact on the lives of the poor.
