Water is Basic helps people in the toughest places on Earth access clean + safe water. We think it is unacceptable that millions of people live without the most basic human need, and have resolved to solve the water crisis in our lifetime.

Women 🤝 Water. The water crisis will be solved by the people most affected by it: women.

Meet Sarah Aguot Deng!

She's one of only two trained women pump mechanics in her community in Baach, South Sudan, and she's turning clean water back on for families who had none.

"I am grateful for this crucial opportunity to learn these skills so that I can serve my community."

She's not an aid recipient. She's an entrepreneur, a technician, and a leader. 💧

One week since Thirst No More — and we’re still feeling it. 💛

To everyone who showed up, gave generously, and helped us celebrate 20 years… thank you. What happened in that room was more than a fundraiser.

It was a statement: clean water for every person in South Sudan by 2030 isn’t just possible — it’s happening.

And we’re not slowing down. This momentum? You’re part of it.

Thirst No More.

We're here because clean water isn't a luxury — it's a lifeline. Tonight we're doing something about it, and we want YOU to be part of it too.

We’re gathered right now, and every dollar we raise brings clean water to families who need it most. No gift is too small. No share is too small.

Give what you can 👇

Incredible news! 🎉

Autrey Mill and Webb Bridge middle school students officially exceeded their goal, raising a final total of $16,451!

This amazing achievement will restore clean water for 32 entire communities—impacting over 2,700 families and more than 16,000 people.

We’re proud of the 7th graders who made this Walk for Water happen, and the work all grade levels put in to making the Village Market a success!

Thank you to every teacher, neighbor, business, and parent for showing these students that when we come together, we truly change the world. 🌍

Big win for the Wedwil community in Aweil! 🙌

The Wedwil team successfully rehabilitated their well, going beyond a simple repair to make it last longer for the community.

The Water Well Committee and residents are so grateful for our support!

A message we received from the field team,
“Spare parts were delivered across Northern Bahr el Ghazal... Pump mechanics received them with joy and are ready to serve their communities by restoring access to safe, clean drinking water. Female mechanics shared that women across the state have been struggling to access water, but with these parts, broken boreholes will be fixed, and they will be able to access clean water again.”

Thank you for making this possible.
Hope to see you in a few weeks in Dallas to celebrate 20 years of work.
