Clean water changes lives
South Africa is a water scarce country with around 4 million people, predominantly in rural areas, living without access to safe drinking water. Access to clean drinking water is fundamental to health, as it reduces the risk of waterborne diseases, allowing individuals to attend school, work, and pursue their hopes and dreams.
It’s time to give-back
Partner with us to help end the cycle of poverty for the most vulnerable communities in South Africa. Companies, teams and individuals not only uplift communities but a partnership with us ensures brand alignment with critical CSR values of sustainability, community empowerment and transparency.
Your partnership journey
It costs ZAR 1,800,000 to bring clean water to an entire village of 4,000 people. The CSR package covers the entire cost of drilling, training, installation, maintenance, monitoring and reporting services. Each step is also in partnership with the village, and we invest time and resources to educate the members of the community about clean water, hygiene and sanitation.
Your journey with us will look like this
Why us?
As we leverage renewable energy solutions, a partnership with us represents a long-term commitment to both social and environmental impact.
Youth empowerment: For every village sponsorship we hire and train 10 local villagers to gain new skills and become water technicians, leading to economic empowerment and project sustainability.
Sustainability: Funding a solar powered clean water project ensures a long-lasting and environmentally friendly approach. Every water project ensures a massive reduction in C02 emissions and the creation of carbon credits which will help fund future water projects.
Track Live: In addition, our unique monitoring system provides real-time alerts, informing of any necessary fixes required. This contributes towards project longevity.
