Water for Humans is a nonprofit social venture enterprise working to bring sanitation and clean water to communities in need through partnerships with local communities, NGOs, social entrepreneurs, universities and governments. These partnerships ensure clean drinking water, create local jobs and protect local water assets.
Over 884 million people in the world do not have access to potable water and over 2.5 billion lack proper sanitation. Potable water shortages and contaminated water sources are some of the leading causes of illness and death worldwide, resulting in waterborne diseases such as diarrhea, cholera, typhoid and parasite infections.
What we do
Water for Humans recognizes the critical need of ensuring sanitation and safe drinking water today and in the future. We work to eliminate current contamination by creating sustainable solutions to wastewater treatment and management. We also implement techniques to increase clean-water resources and reduce black water through permaculture methods, education and public awareness. more
How we work
Water for Humans collaborates with local and international NGO’s, universities and governments to improve public health and reduce disease. We facilitate the use of constructed wetlands for sewage treatment wetlands to eliminate black water contamination while providing safe water for irrigation and aquaculture. more
