4 Months
Est 9 months after donation
100% of your donation goes to accounts dedicated to our fieldwork. Our running costs are covered separately. We earmark your donation for a specific project, so you will know exactly where your generosity has gone. We continue to pool donations until a complete community is funded.
Once your community project is fully funded, vulnerable communities are identified and Water Underground begins the survey process. Once a community is selected, you receive an email informing you that the project has started- including GPS, photos of the Chief, and where they are currently getting their water from.
As the project progresses, we do our best so that you receive updates on the project with photos, including video when water first erupts from the well.
Receive final drilling reports and a full online package about the community you helped transform.
Reporting and Transparency
Transparency, accountability, and inclusivity are of the utmost importance to us, and proving your impact is a pillar of our work. Having said that, we ask you to please keep in mind that our internal staff is quite minimal (until we grow), and we do our absolute best to get you the reports as timely as possible.
Our fieldwork operates year-round with full-time staff, and rest assured that your donation will always go directly to the work in Mozambique. We are trying our best to increase our funding for internal staff to expand our reporting possibilities and make this experience even more personalized for you. If you would like to help fund our operating costs, learn about being a sustaining member of The Aquifer or click here to chat with us.
If you ever have any concerns about where your donation goes or have not received your reports, please do not hesitate to email us.
