Most of us have no idea what it’s like to be thirsty. We have plenty of clean water to drink — even the water in our toilets is clean! But many people around the world don’t have that luxury. Every day, about 1,400 children die from diseases caused by unsafe water and poor sanitation. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

There are simple solutions like drilled wells, spring protections and BioSand filters that help provide clean water to communities around the world. Charity:water builds and maintains these systems. 100% of the money we donate to charity:water is used to build clean water projects. They raise money for administration and overhead separately.

The ICS community understands the importance of critical infrastructure and what automation can bring to the delivery of key services like power, transportation and … water. It is amazing what a difference basic water systems can make to a village that doesn’t have ready access to clean water.

The S4 Community has raised over $124K and fully funded 3 projects in Olianai, Uganda, Omodor upper, Uganda, and Alakaituk, Uganda and sponsored 9 projects in Oleroi, Uganda, Apuuton Okinyang, Uganda, Nyagbea-BO, Sierra Leone, Waima Hendebu, Sierra Leone, Olianai, Uganda, Omodor upper, Uganda, Alakaituk, Uganda, Abwanget, Uganda, and Golokwara, Uganda.
