Amanzi is the word for water in the isiXhosa and isiZulu languages. Water is where AMANZI: Water to Schools starts.

Without water, schools in South Africa are forced to reduce instruction hours or, even worse, close. Water is critical - for drinking, sanitation and for providing a daily meal (often, the only reliable meal) to learners. AMANZI provides options and resources for water solutions; our partner schools decide which solutions will work best for them.

Once water is secured, our job is not done. Next, we become a bridge to our partner organizations who offer further opportunities to teachers and learners.

Together, we strive to create the educational environment that every learner deserves.
