Aakash Ganga, or "River from Sky in Hindi," provides clean drinking water to school children, families, and communities in rural villages. Aakash Ganga has had positive impact on livelihood, children's education, and health. With your support we can provide access to safe drinking water to vulnerable populations, save children from water-borne diseases, improve women's health, and ensure education of girls who otherwise skip classes to fetch water for their families.
