The women who work for the Congo Restoration Girls School of Compassion walk two miles — each way — to gather water for our girls. This year has been hard enough on all of us. Let’s bring water to the school to help the girls wash their hands more easily during the pandemic and ease the burden on these women.

Laura Ryan, founder of Syracuse-based Just Add Water, created a soap just for this fundraiser. Because water and soap should go together, right? The first 36 people who donate $50 or more get a limited edition Sabuni Spice (“sabuni” means “soap” in Swahili). This Congo- and autumn-inspired soap will remind you of the difference you have made to these students.

Let’s get the water and soap flowing! Donate via Chair of the Board Dawn McMullan’s Facebook fundraiser here.
