We harvest rainwater to improve the lives of remote communities
We are UK charity and for almost 40 years we’ve worked originally in India and now Ghana & Uganda to harvest rainwater urgently needed to improve health, reduce poverty, build climate change resilience and free girls/women from water procurement.
To date we’ve worked in over 2000 villages helping 2.3 million people.
OUR CURRENT PROJECTS:
School Rainwater Harvesting in Uganda programmes
Our first multi-year school tanks programme in Uganda completed in July 2025. Work started on our second new programme in November 2025!
107 new tanks built at 22 schools. Now building 37 tanks at 10 schools.
Supported by our local NGO partner.
First programme provided clean water to over 10,000 pupils & staff.
Dugout rehabilitation in Ghana
Expansion and rehabilitation of large water dugouts supplying clean drinking water. In recent years these have been drying out for several months per annum due to climate change.
Keeping the dugouts & their treatment centres open all year round
Supported by our local NGO partner
Regular supply of water from kiosks run by local women

Help rural communities source clean water
Over 2 billion people around the world do not have access to safely managed drinking water services. Around 80% of these people live in rural communities. We work with local partners to provide clean drinking water to last mile communities.
