IMPACTS
GWWIs signature Women's Water Leadership Academy, a 4-year program where grassroots women master the construction of WASH technologies, hygiene education and sustainable strategies. While investing in their WASH skills, we also provided seed funds, and entrepreneurship and leadership training. Within the 4-years, they were able to exceed all our expectations. Check out what we invested, and what they ended up accomplishing! The before and after will blow you away!2021 IMPACT REPORT

OUR INITIAL INVESTMENTWE TRAINED THEM AS TRAINERS...
...but the seed funds did NOT cover the costs for them to offer workshops. But women don't hoard knowledge! They SHARE IT! Especially when it will improve people's lives!
THEY RAISED THEIR OWN MONEY
In total, we invested $100,000 in seed funds. They tripled our investment in grants, cash, in-kind community donations and sweat labor.
AND THEN THEY TOOK THE LEAD!
You probably think these ladies have college degrees with the amount of impact they've had. On the contrary, 70% of the women we trained dropped out of school before the 8th grade. Because of our trainings they are making money, getting awards and influencing local policy!
