Water Health Life helps the world’s poorest communities to secure long-term access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation.
Water Health Life provides long-term solutions including:
- Protecting springs
This prevents the spread of waterborne diseases. - Drilling boreholes
Boreholes enable communities to collect water easily and safely using a pump. - Sinking wells
Sinking a shallow well means the well is only deep enough to reach the water table. It is covered to prevent surface contamination and reduce evaporation. - Building toilets
Toilets dramatically improve sanitation and reduce the spread of disease. - Building rainwater tanks
Rainwater tanks allow communities to access reliable drinking water, even in times of drought. - Training communities in water source maintenance and sanitation
Training is a great way to ensure improvements are sustained in the long term.
