Wal-Mart Grant



Recently, Living Water was awarded a grant of $1000 by the Wal-Mart Foundation. Derek Thompson presented the check to Becky Dietz, our Director, at our local Wal-Mart store. The grant was given to us as a participant in hunger relief in our area. We're proud to be a part of this great effort!

Vietnam Veterans

Recently, the Vietnam Veterans Texas State Council met at Borger. We were contacted months ago and told that we'd been chosen to be the recipient of their Project Amigo. We couldn't be prouder! We are so grateful for the men and women who fought in this war. These people sacrificed so much for our nation. We'd like them to know they are OUR HEROES!


Our own local hero, George Nies, fought in the Vietnam War. George volunteers weekly at Living Water. We asked him to receive the prestigious Project Amigo gift to Living Water.


George told the council about the work we do at Living Water. As he spoke, I heard lots of responses in the crowd. It was a proud moment.

And George received the check from the Vietnam Veterans Texas State Council.

We were delighted to get a group photo of those giving this gift to Living Water.
Thank you, Vietnam Veterans and Associates of Vietnam Veterans of Texas! Your gift to us will help many lives in Hutchinson County.
And we are grateful.
