Join our list for more stories like this

These stories illustrate the happiness and hope that the people in the villages we serve experience when their lives are transformed by the construction of an easily accessible clean water system. Behind these heartwarming tales is each and every one of you who graciously and tirelessly donate. Thank you!

Imagine living without access to a single drop of water for an entire day – no water to drink, wash your hands, or use the restroom. Now, picture having to walk several miles each day, carrying a heavy container on your back, just to fulfill this fundamental need for your family. Unfortunately, this is the harsh reality faced by thousands of women and girls in rural Ethiopia. Many of them are forced to give up their education or never have the chance to attend school, all to ensure their families have water. Tragically, the water they fetch is often contaminated with waterborne diseases that claim the lives of their young siblings.

Stream of Hope is on a mission to change that.

Recognition Corner

Awards and recognitions are our opportunities to honor and celebrate the men, women, youth, businesses, and organizations in our community that have greatly impacted Stream of Hope Inc. and continue to do so as we strive to change lives in rural Ethiopia.

Going beyond wells & spring expansion

Now, envision resolving that problem with simple yet effective water systems. Stream of Hope water projects have the power to transform the lives of entire villages. Beyond providing clean water, these water systems protect young children from waterborne illnesses and prevent unnecessary deaths. Moreover, they open doors for young girls and women, granting them the opportunity to attend school and pursue their dreams of education, thus breaking free from the cycle of poverty and hardship.

Stream of Hope projects are more than just the gift of water— They empower the communities that are served.
