The Life Campaign is a movement of young people who believe in creating social change. It began with a gathering of Canadian youth leaders who knew they could do more together than they could apart. And from there, it started to grow. It was all about connection, and it reached out to people of all ages. What mattered most was being able to join together to work towards a just world and a hopeful future. Today, in the simplest terms, The Life Campaign is a network of people who know that how we live at home can make a difference on the other side of the world. We’re currently focusing on clean water and education projects in countries where we have people on the ground, so that we can be the hands of Christ in places that need our help. The world is a village, after all, and we believe that we can give love. That we can give life. That we can give hope. Whether we’re working to drill a well or build a school, we know that we can make a change. We can make a difference. We can make decisions that matter. Those leaders were right, after all: we’re greater together than we are apart.
There’s nothing more fundamental than water. And there’s nothing more important. It’s 70% of the planet, after all. Simply put, water is life. Without it, we can’t survive. But even as you read this, there’s a serious water crisis around the world. The United Nations has recognized access to clean water as a human right, but more than 1 billion people can’t get the water they need. That’s one in six of us. The facts tell the story: more than 5000 children die from contaminated water every day. But that’s where The Life Campaign comes in: we’re making it our mission to raise $150,000 in 2009 to add to the $150,000 we raised last year so that we can construct at least 26 wells in 12 countries. We can’t go it alone, though, and we’re going to need your help. If we join together, we can solve one of the most serious problems facing our world today. It doesn’t take much to save a life. It doesn’t take much to save a family. It doesn’t take much to make a change. We all have a part to play, and we’d love to have you with us.
The Life Campaign is based in Canada, but our current mission is to make clean drinking water available to communities in the developing world. We’ve already installed one well in Mozambique, and we’re working on others in Guatemala, Malawi, Ghana and Zimbabwe.


With your help, we’ll finish drilling 26 wells in 12 countries by the end of this year. As the work progresses, we’ll be posting information about the projects so you can stay connected to the people and the places that your donation will be helping. The world is a small place, after all, and we’re all in this thing together. If you join us, we can give the greatest gift of all. The gift of health. The gift of hope. The gift of life.
The funds we’re raising through The Life Campaign are going directly to Emergency Relief and Development Overseas, the Canadian humanitarian organization that will be installing the wells we’re funding. If you’d like to join us, it’s simple. It doesn’t take much to save a life, and even the smallest gestures can make a significant difference.

Camps add a little water!

Monday, July 20th, 2009 at 12:16 pm

A couple of youth camps have been raising money for water wells this summer.  Living Waters Camp in Saskatchewan raised over $300 in early July.  It’s amazing what can happen when students get passionate about making a difference!  Then - King’s Valley Camp to the north of Fort St John raised over $1600 towards the Life Campaign…  Summer camp - bugs, friends, fun, life changing experiences & now - bringing hope and Life to those who need it!  If you have camp stories to share - fire them our way!

    Thanks for this, I found it really interesting and enjoyed reading it. I found your site on google, you should advertise it more

  24. I think this web site’s theme is really nice.

  25. I smoked cigarettes for forever and giving them up seemed to be extremely difficult. I tested out the different quitting aids and yet not one thing helped me stop. Then I found the smokeless cigarette. The e cig uses a nicotine fluid that has only nicotine. Absolutely no toxic substances at all. They’ve already basically made all the difference.

  26. I have begun to realize kicking the habit is actually harder than you can imagine. I started cancer sticks when I was in my teens. It was the worst mistake I’ve made. Now I’m much older and I have emphysema. I tested out each of the stopping products yet absolutely nothing helped me stop. My last try will be the e-cigarettes in the end.

  27. I have begun to realize stopping can be harder than you can imagine. I introduced myself to smoking cigarettes when I was just a kid. It had been the biggest mistake I’ve made. Now I’m much older and I have lung disease. I bought every one of the quit smoking products and yet nothing helped me. My final try is the ecig in the end.

    I have not had a drag in for many years. The most awful thing related to stopping smoking could possibly be 1st few weeks. Thankfully that these effects didn’t last long and stuff got better every day as a result of the e cigs. Don’t feel overwhelmed. Please keep at it and you will, no doubt be successful forever.

  29. I smoked cigarettes for quite a few years and kicking the habit has been almost impossible. I attempted all of the stop smoking aids yet not one did the trick. Then I discovered the e-cigarette. The smokeless cigarette utilizes a nicotine liquid that is made out of simply nicotine. No toxic chemicals whatsoever. They have fortunetly improved my life.

  30. While planning to give up smoking cigarettes, I came upon the e cig. The e-cigarette wotks on a nicotine material that holds only nicotine. No cancerous substances whatsoever. They’ve virtually changed my life. Getting rid of sucking in poisons feels marvelous to me!

  31. Wow!, this was a real quality post. In theory I’d like to write like this too - taking time and real effort to make a good article… but what can I say… I keep putting it off and never seem to get something done
