The One Foundation
Our mission is to support sustainable water and sanitation services to communities living in some of the most extreme poverty.
We work in both rural and urban environments, varying our approach to meet local needs and focusing on providing clean water and sanitation as a sustainable service for all.
The One Foundation has a simple vision: a world in which everyone has access to clean and safe water, forever.
703 million people in the world do not have access to clean water.
Water is essential for life, yet millions of people around the world are still living without access to safe drinking water. Over 3 million people die every year from waterborne diseases and most are children under 5 years old. Lack of access to safe water leaves families trapped in poverty, as they are forced to spend up to 4 hours a day collecting water at the expense of working or attending school.
