OUR PARTNERS
What are Starfish Arms Partners?
WASH for Life is linked to several other groups or organizations that carry out efforts towards the same goal – clean water for Malawi. Our partners are all appendages reaching out from the center body. Each in their own location and by their own inspiration and direction, these ‘branches’ of WASH for Life help bring new people into the cause, spread awareness about the water crisis, and fundraise to build borehole wells.
Working both independently and in tandem, we consider these branches to be the arms of a starfish, reaching out in all directions and still connected in their actions.

The Starfish Story
An old man walking along the beach came upon a child sifting through debris left by the night's tide. Every so often, he would pick up a starfish and toss it back to the sea.
The old man asked him the purpose of his efforts.
“The tide has washed the starfish onto the beach. They will die unless I throw them back.”
The old man looked around at the miles of beach.
“There are more starfish than you can ever save.
You cannot make a difference.”
The child bent to pick up another starfish and sent it back to the ocean. Then he looked up at the old man, smiled and replied, “I can make a difference to this one.”
