About us

There is a major crisis enveloping the world due to lack of clean water. A solution to bring immediate change is within reach.

Providing clean, accessible water to communities that lack this resource creates hope for progress, prosperity and change for poverty stricken communities.

Wells of Life was founded in 2007 with one specific purpose: to bring clean water to communities in need through the help and collaboration of businesses, individuals, corporations and families.

We understand that water is a basic human right and a basic necessity for life. Too many communities world wide lack this basic resource and are in dire need of assistance. The presence of water has the ability to transform lives, uplift communities and create prosperity.

After spending over a decade working with Fields of Life, an organization dedicated to building schools and health centers in East Africa, Reverend Trevor Stevenson was determined to create an organization that could provide the most basic resource of water to communities in need. Having witnessed first hand the impact that water has over communities, allowing them to flourish and thrive, Reverend Trevor Stevenson partnered up with Nick Jordan and together they founded Wells of Life.

In 2007 Wells of Life was created to empower East African communities through the construction of water wells and accessibility to clean drinking water.

Wells of Life is able to provide the most cost effective rate of construction as a result of owning and operating its own equipment. Wells of Life controls the entire process and has thoroughly researched every aspect of operation.
