The Water Project Club

See that guy on stage? That鈥檚 Daniel Kang, a senior at Van Nuys听High School鈥揳nd you might want to commit his name to memory. He鈥檚 doing some amazing things as is, and we predict his list of accomplishments will only get longer.

Daniel in 2012, touring our community development projects and for families. He saw firsthand what people needed, and was inspired when听he returned home听to start the Good Neighbors Water Project Club to address a basic need he thought was the most important: clean water.

He decided to spread the word about Good Neighbors鈥 project and joined forces with other high schools including听Chaminade College Prepatory, El Camino High School, Crescenta Valley High School, and Granada Hills Charter. Together, they raised $9,000 and Good Neighbors was able to build three clean water wells in Chad, Africa this past year!
