Water & Health
Every day people die from water-borne diseases. Access to clean water reduces the incidence of water-borne illnesses such as diarrhoea and dysentery almost immediately.
Water & Conservation
Our African projects have a conservation element. A borewell in a conservation area impacts both humans and wildlife where there is conflict over water resources.
Water & Education
Children can't learn adequately if their school has no water.
A borewell in a rural school impacts 250 to 2,000 pupils and has a broader impact on its surrounding community.
