Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply want to make a difference, the Wishing Well platform makes it easier than ever to turn your passion into clean water for people in need in Africa. Many people in Africa are wishing they had clean, accessible water, and they need a WWFA water well. Through this platform, you can help make their wish come true.

We’ve given the Wishing Well a major upgrade to make fundraising simpler, faster, and more impactful. The all-new platform now features:

How It Works
Starting your Wishing Well fundraiser is quick and simple:
- Choose your Inspiration or Passion: You can use the Wishing Well in different ways:
- You can simply raise funds by reaching out to friends, families, and others in your life.
- You can get creative and ask people to sponsor you, for example, when running a 5K or hosting a bake sale.
- You can ask loved ones to donate to your Wishing Well instead of giving you gifts for your birthday, wedding, graduation, or any other milestone you’re celebrating!
- Set your Goal: Remember every additional dollar you raise helps fund life-changing water for communities for years to come. Just $18 will provide someone with water for 20 years!
- Share your Fundraiser: Use our built-in tools to easily share your page with friends, family, and your social networks.
- See your Impact: Your Wishing Well fundraising progress bar will show you at a glance how your efforts are transforming lives!
Why Fundraise?
Every fundraiser—big or small—plays a vital role in bringing clean water to remote communities in Malawi, Africa. With clean water, children can spend more time in school, families can stay healthy, and entire villages can thrive.
If you’ve ever wanted to make a difference, this is your moment. With the new Wishing Well platform, you have the power to turn your passion into clean water for those who need it most—and help make their wish for clean water come true.
