Today is the second day of ChurchMag’s Twelve Days of Christmas (learn more) and we’re going to take a quick look at another awesome organization, Blood Water Mission.
Their mission is simple: Empower communities to work together against the HIV/AIDS and water crises in Africa.
This Christmas, they have a really cool project–check it out:
Blood Water Mission
It’s called … wait for it, wait for it … “Deck the Stalls.”
From the Blood Water Mission website:
“This Christmas, help us ‘Deck the Stalls’ to provide latrines for 2,600 people in Northern Rwanda. A gift for $50 will provide one person with access to sanitation in their community. Consider supporting one person or a family of your size this holiday season. Together, we can give the gift of dignity and health for communities in Africa.”
Did you know that 90% of deaths due to diarrheal diseases are kids under the age 5? For 2.6 billion people (that’s 8 times bigger than the United States) this is a reality!

We need to do something about this!
Creative Media
As you can see from the video above, Blood Water Mission does an awesome job with their creative media. From video and graphic design, to their campaign ideas and website verbage, these guys know how to throw down some creativity!
Need some inspiration? Go see what Blood Water Mission is up to! Seriously.
They’ve also done an excellent job of hooking-in with music artists to push the cause, creating some pretty sweet synergy.
This Christmas
This Christmas, consider giving to Blood Water Mission. Whether you can join-in with their cool Christmas campaign this year or not, Blood Water Mission is a cause worth supporting.
