The Book
Helping someone see and learn about a world outside of their own is a difficult task at any age, but especially for young children. Clean Water For Elirose provides a tangible, concrete way for parents and teachers to educate young children about the difficult circumstances some children face in other parts of the world.

The book has already been written and illustrated. All that's left is for it to be officially published! The $3500 raised here will be used for printing and making the book affordable for teachers and parents.
The back of the book contains activities for classrooms and families and a list of organizations to donate to that build clean water wells. The ideas and activities are simple and easy for even the youngest child to participate in and tangibly make a difference in the lives of other children around the globe.
Pay What You Can

Give $3 or give a little more and get a copy today.
Building Wells
The story of Elirose is about bringing a clean water well to a small village without clean water access. The book is more than just a fictional story though, it's actually a tool to do what it says, build wells.
