CHANGING LIVES THROUGH WATER

According to estimates, $260 billion is lost globally each year due to lack of basic water and sanitation.”

Imagine the economic and human development countries can achieve if they did not have to spend millions of hours each year scouring for water!

Easy access to safe water can open up space for the learning of new skills, training and education. It can allow families to have more time together, mothers can focus on their young children and chores. Just by removing this one thing out of the equation, we can set off a chain reaction that will ultimately create a big impact.

Al Mustafa Trust aims to transform as many communities as possible, by helping them reduce their time spent on water collection.

ATI implements several sustainable solutions to ensure the supply of clean, safe drinking water to people who otherwise have no access to it.
