Celebrate Your Dad, The Giver
Fuel Their Their Passion By Helping Build A Better World.
Every year, it gets a little harder to shop for the fathers and father figures who give their all to support their families and communities. How do we shop for those who cherish giving and never ask for anything in return?
This Father’s Day, celebrate the dads who have given everything (and have everything they need) with an inspired gift that makes a lasting impact.
This Father’s Day, give in a way that reflects the passions and values of the dads and father figures in your life, whether they’re driven by a passion to provide, to teach, to protect, or to build a better world.
Celebrate that spirit with a powerful gift that helps meet essential needs and fuels lasting change for communities around the world. From clean water initiatives to life-changing education, from essential tools to livestock and gardens, our work will reflect your dad’s lifelong commitment to caring for others.
All contributions will support the mission and ministry of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) and will allow the Church to respond wherever the need is greatest.
For the families of San Miguel, a fishing village off the coast of Nicaragua, muddy drinking water was an annual reality. That is, until Asofénix Nicaragua, a partner organization of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A), engaged with the community to develop solar-powered water systems that are transforming life in communities across Nicaragua.
At the center of this initiative was Don Lorenzo Zambrana, a 66-year-old resident who has dedicated his life to his village.
“Many people here do not recognize that the water we drink is affecting our health,” he told
neighbors. “It is terrible how the water turns to dirt in the winter, and we calmly drink it because there is no other choice. But it is time for that to change. I want to drink clean water, even if it is for the last years of my life, so count on me for whatever it takes in this project.”
And his commitment is real.
Lorenzo attended every training session, supported Asofénix’s technical team, and quickly emerged as a leader in the work. Thanks to his dedication, 30 families in San Miguel now have access to clean, safe drinking water year-round. The water system also supports local agricultural efforts and has inspired neighboring communities to launch their own initiatives.
When you give through the Presbyterian Giving Catalog, you support sustainable, community-led solutions that help meet essential needs like clean water and empower local leaders like Lorenzo.
