charity: water and Amusnet: fostering sustainable practices in Africa and India

Since the release of the company’s pioneering slot with charity elements in 2022, Drops of Water, Amusnet has contributed to supporting vital projects across Africa and India by donating 3% of the game profits to the NGO. charity: water works with local partners who have a community-centered approach and years of experience implementing effective, sustainable water projects in their areas. Over the past two years, these are the projects Amusnet has funded: 

India 

In India’s Thar Desert, Amusnet’s donations are funding six rainwater harvesting systems in India, which are being executed by charity: water’s local partner, GRAVIS. Contribution is part of a larger grant bringing 184 household taankas (rainwater harvesting systems) benefiting 1,288+ people. Each taanka is built with active participation from the households directly involved in the construction process. The hands-on involvement provides essential water resources and empowers local communities with the skills needed for ongoing maintenance and repairs. The local partner has also conducted 17 water and sanitation training sessions for 487 community members.  

Ethiopia

charity: water’s local partner, the International Rescue Committee (IRC), is at work in the Sidama and Gedeo Zones in Ethiopia where Amusnet’s donations funded one piped system tap stand. This contribution is part of a larger grant, and the local partner has made notable progress by constructing 31 on-spot springs at remote locations by utilising local materials. Extensive training programs for Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene Committees (WASHCOs) and water system caretakers have been implemented in all project areas. The training has involved 179 WASHCOs and 106 subcommittees, comprising 1,213 participants. Additionally, the IRC has conducted teacher training in four primary schools, including practical demonstrations and guidance on child-friendly sanitation and hygiene practices.

Malawi

Funds from Amusnet are currently at work in Malawi with charity: water’s local partner, Water For People (WFP).This initiative focuses on constructing piped water systems and wells. Following the completion of construction, the project will include thorough water quality testing to guarantee safety and effectiveness. A key element of this effort is community engagement: local governments and residents are actively involved in the development and maintenance of these systems. Their participation is essential for ensuring the long-term functionality and sustainability of the infrastructure, extending the benefits well into the future.

As Amusnet continues to honour its commitment to social responsibility, the impact of its ongoing initiatives in India and Africa illustrates the difference that collaborative efforts can make in the lives of communities facing water scarcity. In this journey, what a true leader stands for is inspiring and mobilising others to join in the mission of creating meaningful and lasting change for those who need it most.
