Event Details

After learning about children and families in the poverty stricken villages of Zambia, in south-central Africa, ten-year old Sawyer wanted to make a difference. This book is a story of youth and gender empowerment, parental engagement and support, faith and empathy, philanthropy, entrepreneurship and strategy, social marketing, and most of all, inspiration that we all matter and can make a difference.
Before age 10, the author of Water Works, Sawyer Anderson, set out to raise $50 to provide safe, clean water for one person for life. But her journey went well past $50 and by the time Water Works went to print, she had raised over $26,000 funding 10 wells in Africa. Water Works marks a first of its kind - 100% of the proceeds go to water, AND Wellspring for the World matches the proceeds AND, through a first of its kind coventure agreement, World Vision TRIPLES those proceeds. With this leverage, every book can save a life and as Sawyer says, 'one book, one life. It's an offer you can't refuse.
So, buy a book and save a life. $9.99!' plus, Sawyer will sign every book and include a special #1Book1Life inscription!
