Water, the earth’s most prized resource, is the lifeblood of our planet. It is a fundamental component of every ecosystem, sustaining life in its various forms. Despite its importance, water is not as easy to access as it is meant to be.people in the world lacked access to safely managed drinking water. Of this number, 115 million people drank surface water.

Furthermore, in 2019, the Nigerian Bottling Company implemented the Challawa Clean Water Project to transform the community’s river water into safe drinking water for thousands of Kano State denizens. This project was spurred by the state’s arid climate which makes accessing safe drinking water a herculean task for the average indigene. Since this project was initiated, we have provided water for 1 million people and replenished 965,000 m3 of water annually.

Ensuring proper hygiene and sanitation on a colossal scale, however, cannot be achieved by a single entity. It requires the contribution of multiple stakeholders. At NBC, we partnered with the United States Agency for International Development ’s Effective Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene Services program to make this possible.
