Who we are
Water Access Rwanda offers water access services for locating groundwater, drilling boreholes, installing solar pumps, installing water filters, and other projects. All living beings are water-dependent, and productive sectors require water, there is no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to providing water.
We are a social enterprise with the mission to establish reliable, affordable and convenient water infrastructure across Africa.
Established in 2014, our mission and vision have guided our services as we provided clean water access to over 220,000 individuals, schools, businesses and farms in Rwanda and across the borders in DRC, Burundi and Uganda. However, in 2020, we scrapped that user count for a more realistic user count, we count our users every year, so we keep only those who access safe water reliably and conveniently from our water points. We are currently at 224, 838 users.
