We are proud to be entering our eight year of partnership with Light the World. Collectively, you have helped us reach thousands of frontline health care workers in need of hygiene training, supplies and clean, running water. 

Shopping for good!

Since 1981 we've reached 29 million people with clean water.

Together, we work with communities to set up practical and sustainable water projects that meet their needs. Hardware, such as taps and rainwater harvesting tanks are always backed up by training on maintenance and management, making sure that the health benefits of clean water are maximized. To ensure sustainability we use technologies that are low-cost, appropriate to the local area, and can be easily maintained by the communities who use them.

We also work with local partners to ensure capacity and skills are developed at a local level. Local partners include:

• Local non-government organizations (NGOs)

• Local and national government departments

• Private utility companies

We invest in local partner organizations to enable them to deliver lasting change for their communities. We typically provide financial support, training and technical advice, as well as help with planning, budgeting and organizational development.

As communities grow stronger, they become more self reliant.
