Central African Republic

Population: 4,511,488 donate now

Ranked 178 of 179 on the UNʼs Human Development Index, C.A.R. is one of the poorest countries in the world. As a matter of fact, 62% of its 4.4 million people live on less than $1.25 per day.

When we considered these statistics, and that also 74% of C.A.R.ʼs population lives without access to safe, clean drinking water, we knew we had to be a part of the solution.

Initially, as Neverthirst was formed, we had a clear calling to serve the harder to reach areas and the dangerous places that desperately needed clean water and the hope of eternal life. Central African Republic fits that mold - and so we go gladly and willingly to raise awareness and give people hope through the local church.

But itʼs not all despair - our partners, Integrated Community Development International (ICDI), employ over 100 indigenous staff who are working hard to restore hope one village at a time through clean water, sanitation training and Gospel advancement. Handing out Bibles in their local languages and sharing the Gospel is as much a part of ICDIʼs water program as teaching sanitation and hygiene.

In 2009, we joined charity:water in an effort to fund ICDIʼs water program and bring thousands clean water through their holistic approach. Additionally, we are supporting a local pastor who spends his time sharing the Gospel and encourage local believers in
each and every village where we fund water and sanitation projects.

Join us as we support their work and share in their ministry.
