What if we could give a million hours?
Time to go to school. To feel well enough to work. To play with your children. To do something you’ve been dreaming about.
We’re bringing our little corner of the internet together to help make that possible through clean water.
The Million-Hour Dream:
$100,000 for clean water projects around the world
We’re at 11% of our goal!
When the water starts flowing, a whole new story begins.
There are fewer days lost to being sick. There are mornings that don’t have to begin with a long walk to collect water. There’s a child who can sit in class and actually concentrate because their stomach doesn’t hurt.
And then that child gets to grow up.
What might they do with those years? Who might they become?
We’re raising $100,000 for clean water projects because water gives people time and health back — those hours can carry on for years, in ways that can touch generations.
“And then that child gets to grow up.
What might they do with those years?”
Here’s where we’re going
Our $100,000 goal will support multiple projects through One Drop Global. Here are the chapters so far.
Where We Began: Uganda
$10,000 contributed to God’s Grace Orphanage
Our first chapter brought us to God’s Grace Orphanage in Uganda, where we supported a completed clean water project that is now serving a community of over 4,000 people, including four high schools!
It’s also where we filmed our first season of MISSION: WATER, our docuseries taking you along for the challenges, friendships and joy behind bringing a water project to life.
COMPLETED
What’s Next
Kenya: May 2027
A clean water project at Jewel Academy | May 2027
Our next chapter will support clean water at a school in Kenya. We can’t wait to introduce you.
Fiji: October 2027
A clean water project planned for October 2027
The journey will continue in Fiji, where we will help support clean water project with household filters, bringing water into families’ homes.
Why This Means So Much to Us
Over the past several years, both of us have spent time involved in clean water and humanitarian work internationally, and those experiences have deeply shaped the way we see the world.
We believe life is most meaningful when we use our gifts, skills, and experiences to help serve others and contribute to something larger than ourselves.
This is why we love building water projects together.
We get to bring together Tim’s engineering experience, Anita’s creativity and storytelling and a community of people who care. We get to make something good happen together.
It’s simple, really. We believe in doing what you can with what you have.
We hope this journey reminds people that meaningful change is possible — and that every one of us has something special to contribute.
Thank you for joining us!
With Love & Gratitude,
Anita & Tim 🩵
Why Clean Water Matters
Clean Water is the Foundation for Everything. Access to safe water unlocks a child’s entire future.:
Health: Waterborne illnesses decrease, and children gain the strength to grow, play, and thrive.
Education: Instead of walking miles to collect water, children spend those hours in the classroom.
Dignity: Families gain the peace of mind that comes from a safe, reliable source right in their own community.
Opportunity: Clean water is the first step out of hardship, creating a stable foundation for the entire village to grow.
Engineering Clean Water
Tim leads the engineering on high-capacity, solar-powered systems designed to last for generations. These systems include:
A Deep Borehole Well for reliable, year-round access.
A Solar-Powered Pumping System (no expensive fuel needed).
10,000 Litres of Storage to ensure the water never runs out.
Water Access Points for the whole community
WASH hygiene training
Long-term sustainability planning
There’s Good Happening.
Good things are happening. People are caring for each other. And we get to be part of that.
Every contribution is a way to put care into action and become part of a world where more people have the chance to thrive.
We’d love to have you with us!
