According to a UNICEF study, 2.2 billion people worldwide do not have regular access to clean water. Around 785 million people do not even have a basic supply of drinking water. People in rural areas are particularly affected. Today’s International Water Day draws attention to this.

All our projects aim to improve the living conditions of the local people. Among other things, we install solar pumping systems, which always also serve to supply drinking water. These are maintained independently by means of a monthly water penny.

We want to continue on this path: Support the construction of wells and pumping stations, so that nobody has to drink such dirty water anymore!
