What We Do

b&w portraitJust a Drop’s mission is to reduce child mortality by delivering accessible, clean, safe water where it is needed most.

Our projects support communities through the construction of wells, boreholes, pipelines, hand pumps and latrines and establish health and sanitation programmes for some of the poorest and remotest regions in the world.

With the passionate support of our volunteers and donors, coupled with a grass roots approach, we are committed to making a real difference to people’s lives through one focus – delivering safe water and sanitation to communities in need.

“Water is the essence of life; without clean water, life is an endless struggle, with it, almost anything is possible. Just a Drop literally breathes new life and gives hope to communities where there was none”. Colonel John Blashford-Snell OBE.
