Joseph Nyirenda Village, Mzimba District, Malawi

“It was a successful day in the village, where for the first time a pump was installed to provide safe and clean water. Previously, people and animals had been using the same unsafe sources of water, but the villagers are now happy to have access to safe water. Most of the community is poor and relies on farming, with recent harvests including maize, soya, and tobacco. However, the area faces challenges such as poor road networks and the absence of a secondary school, resulting in many children not attending school.”

This project was undertaken as part of our campaign of projects that actively reduce carbon emissions. This project helped the community save their much needed wood which was previously being burnt daily to boil water. This project has also eliminated the many thousands of hours previously spent on walking to collect water.
