HOW WE HARVEST THE RAIN

We build 150,000-liter rainwater harvesting systems on schools and 3,500-liter systems on family homes, which can sustain a household of eight through the dry season. Each tank is paired with a greenhouse, turning water into a lifeline for food security. Our approach is rooted in community collaboration and appropriate technology. Using locally sourced materials and simple, sustainable methods, our systems require no electricity or pumps and are easy to maintain. With a projected lifespan of 200 years, they are built to last.

When just one inch of rain falls on a 500-square-foot roof, 300 gallons of water can be harvested. It would take a woman at least 30 trips to collect what one inch of rain could freely deliver to her home.
