Thank you for visiting!
Our crowdfunding campaign has ended, but you can still support the Navajo Water Project by clicking here.
This past summer, five members of the Navajo Water Project traveled to the Navajo Reservation and constructed an off-grid water system for one other family.
Your donations were vital as all parts of the system were purchased with money donated during the SPARK campaign. Your donation helped provide a 550 gallon water tank, a double basin sink, an electric water pump, a solar panel, a battery, and all the other components required to build a sink with running water.
Thank you again for your generous donation to the project! Feel free to email us at uclanavajowater@gmail.com if you have any questions. We'd love to hear from you!
Here are a few pictures from the trip!
Thank you for being a part of the 72 donors that helped the Navajo Water Project raise $5,540! We really appreciate your generosity and wanted to give you an update on what we've been up to so far!
This past Spring Break, 7 of us visited two families out on the Navajo Reservation. We assessed one family's home, taking measurements of their hogan and the surrounding land to prepare for the implementation trip in the summer. In addition, we revisited a family we worked with last year to improve the gray water line and the solar-powered, pressurized water system we constructed. We are continually seeking for more effective and efficient designs for future systems, so revisiting last year's family was extremely helpful. We had a great time working with both families and each other!
Here are a few photos from our trip!

As Bruins, we love the 8-clap! Thank you for being a part of our project! Your gift of $8 allows us to purchase 12.5 feet of piping for our water system! A system for one family requires 100 feet of piping, so we’re getting there! Thank you for your contribution!
Your gift of $25 allows us to purchase an eighth of a battery that stores energy from our solar panels. Your contribution will provide a family with 37.5 minutes of continuous, running water! Thank you for support!
Your gift of $50 allows us to purchase a quarter of a solar panel, which will bring us one step closer to harnessing the desired energy for our system! Thank you for being a part of our project!
Your gift of $100 allows us to purchase a third of a pump that provides a family with pressurized, running water. The families we are working with have never had this luxury before. To show our appreciation, be on the look out for a personalized thank you video!
Your gift of $500 allows us to purchase a water heater for the two Navajo families we are working with this year. Temperatures in Arizona can get extremely low, so we along with these families appreciate your generosity! To show our appreciation, we would love to invite you to our banquet!
Your gift of $1,000 provides one Navajo family with half of their water system! This includes both piping and energy storage! With your generous contribution, one family is halfway to receiving their solar-powered, running water system! Your generosity will be remembered forever, as we will inscribe your name onto a pipe at the project site and send you a photo. Please also come join us at our end of the year banquet!
