Countries

We work in countries where there is a clear need for safe water and sanitation.

We take into account water availability, geography, infrastructure, economic conditions and local culture when identifying the best water and sanitation solutions to suit a community's specific needs.

We've completed projects in 32 countries, reaching over 1.5 million people since we began in 1998.

We're currently working in:

Ndaluni Secondary School is located in a very dry, rural area of Kenya. Life is similar to schools across the world, with one big difference: the students here don't have access to clean water. With the support of Co-op Academy Swinton, Just a Drop will bring safe clean water to the school and transform the lives of the students here.

What We Do

We work at a grassroots level to support communities around the world with access to sustainable safe water solution, sanitation facilities and knowledge of safe hygiene practices: such as through the construction of wells, pipelines, sand dams, rainwater harvesting systems and latrines, and hygiene and sanitation programmes.

Why Water?

With clean water, communities can begin to lift themselves out of poverty and build brighter futures. Drinking dirty water can make people sick. That’s just part of the picture. A lack of clean water and sanitation holds back development and makes it harder for communities to escape the poverty trap.

Our Approach

We believe everyone, everywhere, should have access to clean water as a basic right. We want to see a world where everyone has clean water and adequate sanitation, and the increased health and prosperity this brings. Our approach is to support marginalised people across the world through community-led development, rather than aid; and to focus on sustainability and quality, ensuring a project's transformative impact is felt for decades to come.

Radisson Hotel Group has partnered with Just a Drop as part of its Blu Planet programme. Our partnership helps give children around the world access to safe drinking water through the hotel brand’s towel re-use programme. Guests are asked to reuse their towels and forego housekeeping. For every towel reused, Radisson Hotel Group make a donation to Just a Drop. Over 15,000 people across Just a Drop projects now have access to safe water thanks to this initiative.
