Clean Water Ministry
With the help of our partners, CBN’s Operation Blessing clean water projects provide safe, reliable water in needy regions of the developing world. Our staff work with local leaders to identify needs and coordinate each project.
The Need
- Every day, millions of people around the world are using contaminated drinking water.
- Contaminated water can transmit diarrhea, cholera, dysentery, typhoid, and even polio, causing hundreds of thousands of preventable deaths each year.
- A clean water supply not only saves lives, it can boost a country's economic growth and contribute greatly to alleviating poverty.

What We Have Accomplished Together
- Last year, Operation Blessing gave clean water solutions for communities with over 60 water projects in 9 countries— Kenya, Mexico, Honduras, Peru, Nigeria, Cambodia, Ghana, Indonesia and India.
- Responded to more than 19 disasters and one crisis across 11 countries, including an earthquake in Indonesia, famine in Kenya, and a fuel explosion in Haiti. When tornadoes, tsunamis, floods, volcanoes, or other natural disaster strikes, Operation Blessing helps those in need when they need it most—providing meals, clean water, medical care and more.
With your generosity, these programs bring hope and relief to those in need, as an expression of God's unfailing love.
