Positive Impact Through Alliances
Generating alliances with like-minded companies is a great tool to spread strategies that seek positive impact, that is what SDG #17 is all about.
Joining forces with our neighbors is an important step in this goal, especially given the record global population we now face, in contrast to the limited natural resources available. It is the responsibility of those in better positions to help those in need.
We wish to introduce you to our partners, and hope that like us, you join them to be part of the change!

In their own words: "The Water Project is a charity that provides access to clean, safe and reliable water and sanitation solutions across sub-Saharan Africa, one village at a time..."
The Water Project has initiatives assisting 3 countries in Africa: Kenya, Sierra Leone, and Uganda.
This year we have decided to back up the Laminaya Community, Sierra Leone, assisting 151 people to get a Borehole Well & Hand Pump.
In this community the well dries for several months out of the year, affecting the community in several ways:
Health hazards (stomach cramping, diarrhea, typhoid, and parasitic infection).
Prevention from earning a proper income.
The danger of the hand-dug well collapsing over community members.
You may contact The Water Project for donations to the Laminaya Community in the link on our Home Page. Please remember to include the project name. https://thewaterproject.org/
