What we delivered

In partnership with the BENAA Foundation, GIWEH deployed community water kiosks across underserved areas of Upper Egypt. Each kiosk uses proven filtration to deliver safe drinking water at a price families can afford, replacing reliance on unsafe sources and cutting the burden, carried mostly by women and girls, of fetching water from afar.

Crucially, the kiosks are run locally, with training and a simple maintenance model that keeps them working long after installation.
