EC Community Surpasses Lenten Fundraising Goal for Clean Water in Ghana

We officially met our 2025 Lenten fundraising goal! Thanks to the generosity and enthusiasm of our students, families, and faculty, we raised a total of $6,089 in support of Water Access Now, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing clean water access in Ghana.

This year’s Lenten almsgiving project centered around raising enough funds to donate a well to Sakoti Junior High School in Nabdam, Ghana. For many students in this village, especially girls, the simple act of going to school is interrupted by the daily burden of fetching water from a source over half a mile away. The well we’re funding will bring water access closer to the school—transforming the educational opportunities available to all students, particularly young girls who often sacrifice learning time for this daily chore.

Thank you to everyone for their contributions and support, which included 100% participation from our Mentor classes! Read more about our partnership with Water Access Now on their website.
