2013 Dear Friends,

Alongside: it’s a beautiful word. To be close to the side

of, to be together and in cooperation with, to work

side by side—alongside is how Blood:Water works

best. As we partner with the heroes and grassroots

organizations already at work in Africa, it’s your

generous support that comes alongside us, moving us

all the closer to a day when we will celebrate the end

to the HIV/AIDS and water crises in Africa.

While there is still much to accomplish, it’s with a great

deal of gratitude and sense of encouragement that

we offer this annual report to you. The work of 2013

strengthened the reach and effectiveness of seven

African-led organizations dedicated to serving their

communities with HIV/AIDS and water solutions. We

saw 68 new water projects provide 16,200 people with

safe water. Your generosity toward Sub-Saharan Africa

throughout 2013 made this possible! We celebrate the

good work of 2013 and anticipate a successful 2014.

Joyfully,
