A School-to-School Model

The Gravity Water Youth Initiative is a platform where students in the U.S. can directly impact the lives of students at schools suffering water insecurity. Through the support of Gravity Water's Youth Initiative Coordinators, students work together to develop educational fundraising campaigns with the goal of sponsoring an entire clean drinking water system for a school in need in a developing community.

Partnering with Schools throughout the U.S.

The Gravity Water Youth Initiative program works in partnership with clubs, groups, and classes in both private and public, K-12 schools within the U.S.

We usually work with student organizations such as ASB, Interact Clubs, Key Clubs, Public Health Clubs or Environmental Clubs, but are open to working with any group of students on a campus who are excited about the Gravity Water Youth Initiative program and making a difference in the lives of their peers across the world.

Gravity Water Youth Initiative Coordinators provide one-on-one support to student groups, which can range from four to 30+ students, assisting them in planning and leading educational campaigns within their community. Refer to the chart below for an overview of what participating in the Water Youth Initiative ​looks like!
