Our Story

iThirst was founded in 2015 with a simple yet powerful vision: a world where everyone has access to clean, safe drinking water. What started as a small group of passionate individuals has grown into a global movement.

We've seen firsthand how access to clean water transforms lives. Children can attend school instead of walking miles to collect water. Families stay healthier. Communities thrive.

Today, we've built over 250 wells across 15 countries, changing the lives of more than 500,000 people. But our work is far from over. Millions still lack access to this basic necessity, and we won't stop until everyone has clean water.

Our Values

These core principles guide everything we do at iThirst.

Sustainability

Our projects are designed to last. We build durable infrastructure and train local communities to maintain their water systems for generations.
