Providing a Brighter Future
for Africa’s Children

As a nonprofit and charitable organization, we partner with local African charities and NGOs to provide clean water, healthcare, food, education, orphan care, and more. Every project we support helps African children and families build a healthier, more self-sufficient future.

WATER IS LIFE.

We’ve worked with partners to provide clean water across Africa for many years. Whether it’s for a school, clinic, or farm, these life-changing water projects improve health, reduce hardship, and offer hope for a better future. Thanks to our generous supporters, our work continues in 2026 and beyond.

Clean water changes everything. We know that—and in 2025, it showed.

✨ We completed 84 WASH projects across 8 countries
🌍 In total, more than 70,300 people gained access to clean water

These are families, students, young girls, and communities who are now better able to protect their health, practice good hygiene, and improve agricultural practices that lead to more stable futures.

We’re proud of the difference we’re making together.

Do you remember our WASH projects of 2025? 💧

They’re the clean water systems, school latrines, and hygiene initiatives Bread and Water for Africa® implements across sub-Saharan Africa—bringing life’s most vital resources to communities that need them most.

Students benefit because they no longer have to miss school to fetch water. Girls, in particular, are able to stay in class longer and better manage their health. Community health also improves when families have access to clean water and safe sanitation.

Together, we didn’t just talk about impact—we delivered it.
