Helping others get safe drinking water

Note: A number of these are Christian in motivation. The Christian faith compels service to others, showing mercy, etc. (as  instructed by Jesus Christ and others in Judeo-Christian scripture), and is echoed in other religious traditions. If an overtly Christian emphasis bothers you, focus on the secular choices or find opportunities aligned with your religious preference (suggestion: Google "your religion of choice" plus "water relief", which brings up a variety of options). To our knowledge, the below mentioned charities are legitimate and do what they say. Please tell us if otherwise.
