For over 10 years, Fox Valley Presbyterian Church has supplied water purification systems and leadership training for local villagers in Guatemala. The annual golf tournament and dinner with a prize drawing provides the primary source of funding for this mission. The church sends teams to villages in Guatemala twice a year to install clean water systems; to provide hygiene education to villagers so that they understand the importance of using clean water; and to do follow-up visits where they provide replacement parts while making sure the systems are being maintained properly. Actual system installations are done by villagers under the guidance of the church team, so that there is a strong sense of ownership of the system and so the village residents can operate and maintain the system.

Sign up today and help bring life-giving water to those in need!
