The capital city of Ethiopia, Addis Ababa, is one of the fastest growing cities in the world. More than 374,000 poor children attend government-funded schools in Addis, where the water and sanitation conditions are appalling. Only 6% of schools have reliable access to water, 35% have useable toilets, and of schools that had taps for handwashing, only 66% worked. Soap is present for handwashing in just 10% of schools. Splash's goal is to ensure every school in Addis has safe water always.

Splash is at the forefront of a growing movement to ensure that children in urban poverty have the resources they need to thrive and realize their full potential. We provide water, sanitation, and hygiene hardware (water filters, handwashing and drinking stations, toilet construction) and custom hygiene education to students, staff, and local communities. Your generosity brings dignity, good health, opportunity, and joy to kids in Kolkata and others just like them!

Splash is on an exciting mission to ensure that children in urban poverty have the resources they need to thrive! Over the next five years, we aim to reach 100% of government schools in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia and Kolkata, India with clean water, clean hands, and clean toilets. This initiative, Project WISE (WASH-in-Schools for Everyone) will benefit one million kids living in some of the fastest growing cities on the planet. The impact will be healthier students and improved school attendance.
