Tanzania Water Projects

39 percent of Tanzania lacks access to safe water, and children are falling sick, but it’s entirely preventable.

  • 11 percent of the population does not have access to a toilet, so they go outside in the open.
  • Preventing illness is challenging, as 52 percent of people have no reliable source of hand washing facilities with soap and water.
  • The good news: Diarrheal disease, a leading cause of death for children under five years old, is nearly eliminated by drinking safe water and practicing proper sanitation and hygiene.

Our Work in Tanzania

Lifewater constructs custom water access and sanitation solutions in the globe’s hardest to reach communities. This includes places like Shinyanga, a region in Tanzania in great need of safe water.

First, local staff who know the culture and language help communities adopt life-saving sanitation and hygiene practices. They love like Jesus by bringing health to their neighbors. Then, communities receive a safe water source built to last for generations, and donors receive an update with a photo of their impact.

(Note: data below from 2021–August 2022)

“My wife and I were fortunate to find Lifewater. I could write for hours about them, the service and impact they provide. We love supporting them and look forward to many years of partnership!”

– Chris and Sarah McCabe, Lifewater Donors
