\"charitywater_vertical_white\"Previously on the Rocket Yard, we told you about the $80,000 raised as part of OWC\u2019s charity: water campaign<\/a>. That campaign was part of an even larger campaign called \u201c100 Wells For The Holidays\u201d<\/a> that raised more than $1.5 million to bring sustainable drinking water solutions to people in developing nations.<\/p>\n

In an ongoing series on the Rocket Yard<\/a>, we will share the Ethiopian communities that have benefited from charity: water\u2019s mission. These villages now have access to safe and clean drinking water and have been trained on safe hygiene practices and basic maintenance of their water project.<\/p>\n
