OKC metro-area charity hosts contest

For each photo submitted, a donor has pledged to make a contribution of $5 in the submitter's name to Water4. Further, anyone, including a submitter, who makes a $5 donation to Water4 during the contest, which will run until midnight on Dec. 31, will have their $5 donation matched by the same donor.

Water4 co-founders Richard and Terri Greenly and Grammy Award-winning gospel singer and Water4 supporter Sandi Patty will choose the best three photo submissions. The three photo contest winners will each receive the honor of having a well dug and a pump installed and named for their families. Also, each of the winners will receive four handcrafted fair-trade bracelets purchased from women in Delhi, India, to share with their family.

“Terri and I are thrilled to host this contest to raise awareness and support for Water4 and for the solution to the little-known, worst crisis of humanity — the lack of clean drinking water to the bottom billion in the world. For the first time in history, this solution to fixing the world's water crisis (4000+ child deaths per day) is within our grasp,” Richard Greenly, co-founder of Water4, said recently.
