Education and Training
Health and Hygiene Education
WaterStep goes beyond just providing tools; we educate communities on the importance of hygiene, handwashing, and disease prevention. Our training programs include topics like insect mitigation, menstrual health management, and infant care, tailored to meet the specific needs of each community.
Borehole Drilling
We partner with excellence-driven borehole drilling organizations to provide safe, sustainable water sources. WaterStep ensures that once a borehole is drilled, the water remains safe through our integrated water systems and ongoing community training.

By training women and community groups to use the BleachMaker, WaterStep empowers them to generate income while providing essential disinfectant to their communities. This program not only supports household incomes but also strengthens community resilience.
