About GARD
GARD (Grassroots Assistance in Rural Development)
GARD is a grassroots non-government organization dedicated to assisting others in developing countries through clean water and education programs. We believe these programs are best carried out in a joint effort between us and the people, and therefore community involvement is the foundation for its success.
This involvement provides people with project ownership, skills training and a broader knowledge base; the ingredients for a sustainable project. It also provides the opportunity for our volunteers to interact with people on a personal level and to develop a better understanding of the needs and values of the area.

Make a Difference Today
GARD is currently fund raising to return to the Lira area in Uganda to help a village called Akek protect their spring, implement biosand filters and teach water, health and sanitation education.
Your donation will change the health of the community in Akek as they will have access to safe drinking water and the education to sustain it.
Your donation, today, is greatly appreciated!
