Why Clean Water Matters

If you already have clean water, it’s hard to imagine how dire the global water crisis is. Think about how often you use water in a typical day—a morning shower, a refreshing drink, or making coffee.

Now imagine turning on the tap and finding only muddy water—or worse, nothing at all. For 703 million people, this isn’t imagination. It’s reality. Many walk for hours daily to collect dirty water in heavy Jerry Cans, often unsafe and carrying diseases. Hours wasted collecting water also prevents community members from going to school or helping their family.

Clean water changes everything.

At Bart Ehrman Courses, we believe clean water is a basic human right. That’s why we’ve committed to donating $1 for every course sold and $0.50 for every Biblical Studies Academy (BSA) renewal. Together, we can help bring clean, safe drinking water to communities in need.

Everyone deserves clean water!

MEET CHARITY: WATER

charity: water is a nonprofit organization on a mission to bring clean and safe drinking water to people in developing nations. With a 100% donation model, they ensure every dollar goes directly to funding sustainable water projects.

Since 2006, charity: water has provided clean water to 19.1 million people through 171,000 water projects in 29 countries. They partner with local organizations to build and maintain these projects, empowering communities and creating long-term solutions.

A private group of philanthropists covers all charity: water's operating costs so that 100% of all public donations can directly fund clean water projects.

Just $1 provides 1,100 liters of clean water.

PLEDGE UPDATE

charity: water has asked us to hold the funds until we reach $10,000.00, which is the amount needed to fund a single water project.  However, for transparency, we will provide updates below for each month starting in Dec. 2024 when the pledge was announced.  We have pledged to donate $0.50 per BSA renewal and $1 per course sold through the end of 2025.
