You are invited to an event that will benefit Living Water Children’s Fund. (The name is coincidentally the same as Living Waters Church on Pleasant Hill. We are not affiliated.)

We are raising funds for Joy House, a school in a desperately poor slum in Nairobi, Kenya; Living Water Children’s Centre, an orphanage in Arusha, Tanzania; and two sites in Haiti.
You can learn more about us at our website: www.LWCCFund.org or our Facebook page: Living Water Children’s Fund.
