We're Helping Kenyans Bloom Through Love & Water. Will you?

Become a Monthly Donor Today!

Dear Faithful Supporters,
One of our donors just challenged us. He said, “If you add monthly donors to WILK, I’ll personally match each donation for one year.”
We need your help to unlock this extreme generosity!
Every donation helps us support Kenyans, but monthly donors provide us an undeniable base of support. These gifts help us bear the ups and downs of the annual giving cycle and give us flexibility on the ground in Kenya.
As a monthly giver, you can automate your impact. And, with this unique opportunity, each month your gift will be doubled for one year!
Think about it – your one decision today can turn into twice as much impact over the next year! Each monthly donor will receive a monthly update letter from me, as well as a year-end tax summary to simplify your taxes.
Will you help multiply our efforts by signing on today?
Thank you for considering,

Joyce Tannian
Executive Director & Co-Founder
