Every day, with the twist of a knob, clean water flows out of our sinks and showers. It’s so typical to have access to clean water that most of us don't even think about it.

But in hard to reach and war-torn places like South Sudan, people think about clean water every day — because they don't have it. Even walking to get water is a long and dangerous task.

Already vulnerable children and women journey hours to fill up containers of river water for their families. Unfortunately, this daily walk puts them at high risk of being trafficked or injured and most often the water carries life threatening diseases.

In South Sudan, human trafficking and exploitation are rampant due to extreme poverty and relentless conflict that has forced millions to flee and destroyed infrastructure at every level, including education systems, food security, and clean water access.

This September, student athletes from NC State University’s Pack of Wolves NIL collective and National Coatings Inc, are working together to help Lift Up the Vulnerable drill a new well in South Sudan so children and women can be safe, stay healthy, and flourish.

Lift Up the Vulnerable (LUV) exists to prevent the trafficking of vulnerable children and women in warzones and empower them to be changemakers in their communities.

Safe access to clean water is critical to LUV's trafficking prevention programs.

Join "Team Jaiden Thomas" from the Pack of Wolves, NC State’s NIL collective, and National Coatings by giving the gift of water.

Help us drill a well for LUV and keep kids safe from human trafficking in warzones.

Your generosity will create real change in some of the hardest to reach places in our world today.

Just a small donation will go a long way to helping me meet my goal for LUV.
