Access to safe water and sanitation across Africa

In 2026, Water for Good's $6.01M program will construct 258 new water points, maintain 3,660 water points and successfully train 371 villages on hygiene and sanitation in the poorest regions in the Central African Republic, Ethiopia and Tanzania. They train local leaders how to maintain the water points and provide technical maintenance.

$74 helps one person gain sustained access to safe drinking water and sanitation. They expect 81,365 people to gain access to safe water, 26,846 people to gain access to adequate sanitation and hygiene systems, and 1,262,036 people with maintained water systems. Their studies have shown their communities experience a 90% reduction in waterborne disease related illnesses.
