Our Living Water community has always done incredible work around the globe, but lately, their passion for the thirsty is going to new levels! In case you missed it, our friends, Paper for Water sat down with The Kelly Clarkson show yesterday! They shared how they've raised $3.5 million by selling their origami paper creations for clean water projects through Living Water International. Surprise guests, Living Water's President and CEO, Mike Mantel, and Sierra Leone Country Director, Rosemarie Blake, even managed to stop by to show their appreciation. Watch their entire segment from The Kelly Clarkson Show hereFrom origami paper folding to recycling for water, our partners at Bear Creek Church in Lodi, California, are in the spotlight this week for their inspiring work. Having already funded an impressive 171 water projects by collecting donations of recyclable materials, they are well on their way to providing safe water to an additional 100,000 people by the end of 2022! Read the full article about Bear Creek Church's work here! No matter how you are supporting women, men, and children around the world through safe water, you are making a difference!
