Story

As you read this, countless women and children in rural Ghana are walking, searching for water. Children are missing school and women are losing valuable time. Meanwhile, clean water could be right beneath them, deep underground. The solution? Solar-powered water kiosks that bring clean water to the surface-and provide women and children healthier, happier lives.

Impact

Through this project, we will reach 3,000 people with sustainable access to safe water. That means improved health and better economic opportunities for families, particularly women. We equip our kiosks with remote monitoring technologies to evaluate kiosk performance every day and maintain maximum uptime. The minimal water tariff collected through e-payment, accessible for repairs ensures that communities are self-reliant and water secure in the long-run.

Challenge

In the communities we serve, water does not come out of a tap. Women and children walk for hours to distant polluted sources like rivers, ponds and swamps. These water sources are shared with cattle and drinking this water makes families sick. Critically, children under the age of 5 are hardest hit as diarrheal deaths remain a dominant trend. Through this project, we will provide sustainable access to safe water to 3 rural Ghanaian communities, reaching a total of 3,000 people.
