Who We Are

We have been building water wells in rural Africa since 1996.

We believe clean water is the first step out of poverty, and that those without any should have it first.

Our Water Wells Must Meet These Requirements:

Simple

Tech is great, but if a villager needs to order a part from Germany to fix a broken well, it just won’t happen.
home-requirements-wrench

Sustainable

98% of our wells continue to function after 10 years because of our unique model of community ownership.

Accessible

We go where no one else is going and give clean water access to people who’ve never had clean water in their lives.
Take a look at some of our completed and current projects.
A Silent Emergency: bad water is killing people and destroying lives.
Gift of a Lifetime: with clean water a generation can succeed.

We've had families, companies, legacy funds, and teenage kids completely sponsor water projects.
