Alan & Tish Jackson
President & CEO
Tanzania holds a special place in their heart. Providing clean water for the people has been life-changing. They work extremely hard in giving back to Africa.
Bruce Kemp
Vice President Africa
​
Bruce has long believed in the philosophy championed by Andrew Carnegie: “A third of your life to learn, a third of your life to earn, and a third of your life to give back. After educational pursuits and business endeavors, he is now in his most cherished part of life, that of giving back.
Bruce believes that providing the people of Africa with clean water is a great blessing, but the rewards in return received are priceless.

Mark is full of energy and the kids love it. Mark and his family, Becky and Ali, traveled with us to Tanzania to complete a well for their son and brother who had passed away. They fell in love with the people of Tanzania and have found themselves unable to stay away.
Dan Dimick
Board Member
It is an honor and a pleasure knowing Dan and having him on our board of directors. Unfortunately shortly after returning home from our July 2017 trip to Africa where Dan played a critical role in restoring an old well and establishing a tank and filter system providing clean water for the Maruango Village, Dan was called home to be with our Heavenly Father. Dan will be greatly missed however we know he is still active on our board assisting us from the other side.
We Love You Dan and
Will Miss You,
God Speed
Lynn Hall
Board Member
Lynn has always had the longing to go to Africa. After experiencing a trip to Africa he said "As we worked on and were able to find a way to get an old well functioning and get a water system working in the Maruango Village, it is almost impossible to explain the feeling I got from the people when we finished up and they knew that they had a good water source and how that not only changed their lives but the lives of their family members to come."
​
Lynn looks forward to many more trips in Africa to help provide fresh clean water to thousands of people
