The community of Madagascar overcomes water scarcity.

Madagascar is one of the least developed nations in the world, and the 3,000 inhabitants of the village of Efoetsy, located on the dry south-western coast, have been struggling with increasing water scarcity by declining rainfall over the past years. Locals struggle daily, especially women and children, who bear the responsibility of securing water for their households.

Thanks to the work of the Elemental Water Foundation, the community now operates and maintains its drinking water supply of 15,000 liters/day, together with a local NGO, to ensure the sustainability of the project over time. By distributing and selling the water for a price that matches the ability of the community, it’s ensured that value is added to the community and that maintenance can be covered. Today, the inhabitants of Efoetsy have a reliable, safe drinking water supply that will continue to provide for the community for years to come. Read more about the project.

Water. A human right, not a privilege.

People without access to safe water live in rural areas.

Today 1 in 3 people or 2.2 billion people around the world lack safe drinking water. The large majority of these people live in rural areas in developing countries, where economic interest is limited, development aid is often lacking, and problems are ignored. Women and children are disproportionately affected, as they are often responsible for collecting water. Our founders consider it of utmost importance to enable clean water in a sustainable way for everybody. Water is a human right, not a privilege.

The Foundation that powers change.

The Elemental Water Foundation is a certified & independent non-profit organization that enables safe and affordable water by realizing projects that provide water for people that face water scarcity in developing countries. The Foundation has been established by our Founders and several other like-minded individuals. The organization is dedicated to helping the rural communities get safe access to affordable drinking water using the sea and sun by financing water projects.
