Water wells transform the long-term prospects of communities, and they are the best protection we have against water-related diseases.
We provide clean fresh water for proper sanitation, drinking and bathing, feeding livestock and watering crops and gardens. We believe every child should be in school and not risk their lives and walk miles to collect undrinkable dirty water for their families.
Provide much needed long-term access to clean, safe water within the heart of towns and villages where they are built giving the community the opportunity to live a cleaner lifestyle, improve their hygiene and give them the chance to grow crops for themselves.
A Solar Panel Water & Power Centre is a specially designed well that provides access to water in hard to reach places through a pump in a sustainable way while also supplying electricity to the community it serves, transforming the lives of thousands.
The best charity is giving water to drink”
