10,000 people with clean water
Our first major milestone — 10,000 people in 8 communities now drink safe water. The model is proven.
Education programme launches
We break ground on our first school in Bangladesh. By year-end, 3 schools are open with 1,200 enrolled students.
Women's Empowerment programme
We launch microfinance lending with 150 borrowers in Kenya. Repayment rate in year one: 99%.
Health clinics begin
Our first two community health clinics open in rural Kenya. 4,200 patients seen in the first six months.
