Organisation Summary

Without clean water, millions of people living in rural areas of developing countries cannot meet basic needs to improve their living conditions or escape poverty. Bridgit Water Foundation’s main goal is providing cost-effective water infrastructure facilities to rural communities in developing countries living in water crisis so they can climb the development ladder to reduce poverty and improve their living conditions.

Providing a water well to a community desperately in need is vital for economic development and poverty reduction because it sustains the livelihood of vulnerable rural people to meet their rising resource needs.
Our vision is to provide improved drinking water to improve the quality of life for people living in rural areas of developing countries.

Our mission is to provide suitable, accessible and sustainable water solutions to some of the poorest and most marginalised people in rural, peri-urban and small, remote villages in developing countries.

Since 2010, Bridgit has impacted over 1.3 million people providing access to safe water into more than 700 rural communities in Uganda, India, Nepal, Malawi, Ethiopia and Tanzania including dozens of schools and healthcare facilities. All borewell installations are prioritised in remote rural communities because our implementing partner’s development officers cooperate with local government departments to ensure that all borewells are located in the most water-scarce remote rural areas.
