Welcome to our project blog – a space where we share what we’re building, learning, and discovering in the field. From hands-on water solutions to creative sanitation ideas and informative documentary and video content, we share our journey openly so others can learn, adapt, and join in. Dive in, get inspired, and let’s develop water – together.

A New Latrine for Jireh Orphanage
What seems simple can mean everything: In 2018, we helped replace an unsafe hole in the ground with a safe, clean, and permanent 3-stall latrine for children at Jireh Orphanage. Because sanitation is dignity – and every child deserves both.
Using Solar Heat to Fight Parasites
Some of the world’s most dangerous waterborne pathogens can survive chlorine – but not heat. On Zinga Island, we’re harnessing the power of the sun (and a little innovation) to destroy Cryptosporidium and Bilharzia in drinking water – sustainably, affordably, and effectively.
Field-Testing Water Quality Without a Lab
How a mayonnaise jar, a candle, and a water barrel became a DIY microbiology lab on Zinga Island. Discover our low-cost, field-ready method to detect Clostridium – and why it matters for water safety in remote communities.
Cleaning Water with Nature
Can two humble plants help combat malaria and purify drinking water? Our pilot project in Uganda combines science and tradition by growing Artemisia and Moringa—local, powerful, and full of potential. Here’s how it’s taking root.
