"Rural Community Assistance Partnership shares our commitment to ensuring equitable water access for rural and tribal communities. RCAP’s grassroots work through its network of regional partners is vital for these often overlooked communities and the families that live there. We partner with RCAP on our Hometown H2o program because we know they have the local relationships, expertise, and heart to deliver sustainable water projects that improve quality of life. At The Chris Long Foundation, we envision a world that stands up to inequity to ensure access to clean water is considered a basic human right that no person lacks. RCAP helps us work towards this goal by delivering safe, clean water access for thousands of communities around the country."
