Empowering Life Through Sustainable Clean Water
We believe the key to sustainable change is a holistic approach to improving the quality of life, which begins with clean water. We partner with village leaders to develop and execute a successful plan to provide water to that village. We then work with a local civil engineer to create the best approach. Village volunteers collaborate to dig miles of trenches from the water source to the pump house and water distribution points located around the village. The process takes roughly 12 months, and an average project requires $250,000 to $280,000 for full funding.
Clean water provides improved quality of health, reduction in water-borne illnesses, and cleaner food sources. We work with local teams to assess the land, dig trenches, dig the bore hole, lay piping, construct the holding tank, and maintain the well.

In September of each year, a team of people from the USA travels to Tanzania for face-to-face meetings and discussions with the TLP (T) NGO staff and also to visit/monitor the progress in the villages. This is a valuable trip to ensure coordination and alignment between the organizations to achieve our mutual goals.
