Our Work:
Creating Sustainable Change through Water Infrastructure & Education
Community-Driven Sustainable Water Projects
By combining technical skills with grassroots ownership, we ensure that each water project serves as a sustainable resource and not just a temporary fix. Whether we are restoring or building water system infrastructure, each project begins with the community and their needs.
Local Engagement First
Our team of expert engineers and hydrologists works with each community to:
• Assess the site’s geography and environmental factors
• Calculate local water needs
• Secure long-term commitment to maintaining the system
The project moves forward once the community is fully engaged and invested in the sustainability of the project.
High-Standard Infrastructure
Once the groundwork is laid, we deploy our GBF-branded drilling rigs and local team to construct boreholes that:
• Meet or exceed national government quality standards (National Office of Water (ONEA))
• Are engineered and equipped for durability and performance
• Ensure safe, sufficient and reliable access to clean water

In the Giving Spotlight:
A New Way to Give
On the eve of World Water Day 2025 at the United Nations in New York, New Day Impact proudly launched a new giving platform, Inform, in partnership with the Georgie Badiel Foundation. To celebrate this launch, a generous donor has pledged to match up to $5,000 in donations made through the platform. Every dollar matched brings us closer to building a new well in a rural village, where women currently walk miles each day just to access water.
Our Community of Monthly Donors
Change doesn’t just come from big partners. When we come together consistently and purposefully, we create ripples of change.
