100% of raised funds go to project waterfall

Today, 703 million people around the world don’t have access to clean water. The majority live in isolated, rural areas – the same areas growing our coffee. UK Coffee Week raises funds for Project Waterfall, the charity that provides clean water, sanitation and education to coffee-growing communities across the world.

Why it matters

Economic growth

Improved access to water leads to increased productivity and consequently, local economic growth. Plus, the construction of new water supply systems will also create new jobs and other economic opportunities.

Resilience

The construction of water supply systems using materials that take into account the anticipated changing climate, ensures that the community will continue to have access to safe, clean water well into the future.

Gender equality

Women in the community will no longer have to spend large amounts of time collecting water and so can pursue economically productive pursuits, helping break them and their families free from poverty.
