Mission

Water for Good's mission is to transform lives through sustainable access to safe water, improved sanitation and hygiene in the places that need it most.

  • Water Access: WFG completed 124 new water points in 2023 which means 49,200 people received safe water for the first time. This included 15 solar-powered pump systems, 86 tapstands, and 38 handpumps. A new PAT drill rig was procured and will be placed into service in 2024.

    Expenses $3,514,600 · Revenue $4,144

  • Maintenance: WFG targets a visit to each pump in the program twice per year and performs regular maintenance to ensure constant uptime. In 2023, 3,628 maintenance visits were completed in 2023 with 92% of water pumps in the maintenance program having a functional status after the visit.

    Expenses $1,562,831 · Revenue $34,774

  • Advocacy: WFG will influence external support and implementing organizations to take action in line with the common principles and focus on systematic approaches to universal access to sustainable WASH service delivery, and provide overall direction and coordination in CAR.

    Expenses $496,523 · Grants $15,000

  • Radio: WFG broadcasts on a shortwave frequency which is heard over the western part of CAR. Programing is focused on reinforcing the hygiene message, general community advancement, and interviews. In 2023, there were over 3,860 hours of Water for Good airtime.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
