Dear Donor,
We are sharing a quarterly impact update on the Safe Water for Families in Rural Ghana Project that you have generously supported. We are so pleased to share that Project Maji has officially partnered with Bryan Acheampong Foundation in Ghana. This partnership will truly help us accelerate safe water access in rural Ghana as it solves a key operational challenge of site selection, for us.
How it Works
Our partner, Bryan Acheampong Foundation (BAF) is running a variety of social impact programmes including a WASH arm under which the foundation is looking to mechanize borewells and water supply for rural communities to ensure sustainability. This is where Project Maji comes in, as an expert implementing partner providing both the system and services to ensure sustainable access to safe water.
Critically, the partnership is designed to complement and strengthen each party’s core competencies in support of safe water access. For us, site selection based on a variety of socio-geographical criteria is undoubtedly a challenge. The foundation’s support and existing rapport in the three pilot sites will greatly ease our penetration in the communities. Similarly, Project Maji brings technical expertise required to deploy robust sustainable water solutions, to the table. Our support will enable BAF to mechanize borewells and provide a reliable source of safe water to communities in need.
Anticipated Impact
During the pilot phase, the 3 solar-powered Maji kiosks will be installed in Aduamoah, Nkwatia and Abetifi communities in Kwahu East District, each serving a community of approximately 1,000 people. That is, a total of 3,000 lives transformed with sustainable access to clean water. We look forward to strengthening this partnership in support of safe water access and scaling our joint impact in the future.
