Clean Water
Billions of people lack access to clean water
This affects health and hinders education, employment, economic growth, and gender equality.
Having access to clean water not only saves lives and leads to better health outcomes, it creates a domino effect of positive change throughout entire communities by improving access to education, food, employment, gender equality, and mitigates the effects of climate change.
Over the last 15 years, AJA Foundation has invested approximately $3 million to support five clean water initiatives. Some have been multi-year commitments.
The Goal
To create sustainable change and gender equality through the implementation of renewable clean water systems thereby ensuring long-term health, social, and economic benefits to those communities.
