Join Us on an Extraordinary Journey to Save Lives

Did you know that unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation cause 80% of diseases and claim more lives each year than all forms of violence, including war?

Here in the United States, we often take clean water for granted. We turn on the tap, and it's there. However, nearly 1 billion people around the world do not have access to safe drinking water, and 2.6 billion lack adequate sanitation facilities. Tragically, every day, nearly 6,000 people die from water-related illnesses, with the majority being children under the age of five.

What began as a group of friends fulfilling a lifelong dream to climb one of the tallest mountains on earth has transformed into a mission to save lives. In 2011, a climbing team representing the engineering industry journeyed to Tanzania in eastern Africa to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro. Through this endeavor, they raised awareness and financial support for the global water crisis.

Since then, Climb for Water has completed four high-altitude missions and raised nearly $50,000 for water projects worldwide.

After an eight-year hiatus, Climb for Water is embarking on another mission. This time, a team of 10 volunteers will climb Pikes Peak in Colorado, standing at 14,115 feet. It's a formidable challenge, and your support will help us reach the summit and beyond.

In September 2024, we will climb and raise funds for our new partners at Water Mission. Water Mission is a nonprofit Christian engineering organization that has been making a significant difference in the lives of people in developing countries and disaster areas since 2001. They have provided safe water to over 8 million people in 59 countries. Yet, there is still much work to be done. With your support, we can help them transform even more communities, one at a time.
