Art for Agua

In three years, we have partnered with nine communities in the Cusco region of Peru. Now, we are refining our solutions to scale our impact in Peru and beyond. The Ccorca District of Cusco is home to 9 communities and 915 families.

Currently, there are over 3,000 people without consistent access to clean water within this district. In collaboration with our local partner, Sustainable Development Studies (SDS), we’ve connected with Mayor Lucio of the Ccorca District. Together, we’ve made it our goal to empower each of the 9 communities with the equipment, tools, and knowledge to achieve clean water access on a community-wide level. But we need YOUR help!

This year, for Giving Tuesday, we are launching our first ever Art-for-Agua Auction. With your help, we will build awareness and raise funds to empower the 915 families of the Ccorca District with clean water. At the same time, we are engaging and supporting our local arts community. These artists have given their creative energy and original art pieces to support our cause.

By participating in our Art-for-Agua Auction, you are enabling hundreds of families to achieve consistent access to clean water creating opportunities to achieve their potential and break cycles of poverty.

We are a small non-profit organization with a mission to empower communities with a lifetime of access to clean water. Clean water is just the first step for underserved communities to achieve prosperity.

We are different from other water organizations in that 33 Buckets is a team of engineers at its core, focused on creating innovative solutions to water needs. We work with communities to address their unique needs, and we ensure that our work is long-lasting by educating the community on how to not only use their clean water systems, but to maintain it for a lifetime.
