Water is a vital and scarce resource all over the world. This project implements and enhances rainwater harvesting and sanitation facilities, capacity and infrastructure, whilst ensuring the best basic hygiene and sanitation practices. Be part of the solution! Fully funded through your donations we aim to bing safe drinking water to all our communities across Africa, Asia and Latin America. It's a big project but together we can do it!
Challenge
It is often difficult for rural communities to get access to water in their homes, leading to poor personal hygiene, and the water they do get they are unable to filter for drinking as the infrastructure in the areas is inadequate. Due to the lack of clean and safe drinking water people get sick and sanitation practices become low on the locals' list of priorities. Another aspect is that many schools, healthcare centres in rural communities also do not have access to clean and safe water.
Long-Term Impact
Since 2011, we have been dramatically increasing the overall water capacity in several communities around the world. The long-term impact will be ensuring safe and reliable drinking water for communities whilst creating awareness so that communities can continue to have access for years to come. This project also makes it possible for people to have good basic hygiene practises and reduce illness. As we are harvesting rainwater this project is 100% sustainable and using natural resources.
