Our mission is to bring clean water to the people of Burkina Faso. Over the past 10 years, we’ve built and restored sustainable water systems, trained local women to maintain them, and educated youth on water, sanitation, and hygiene. By 2035, we aim to provide 10 million people with access to safe, sustainable water.

The Water Princess children’s book, based on Georgie’s childhood, highlights her journey of walking 9 miles daily for water in her village. This personal story inspired the founding of GBF, which has been breaking the cycle of water scarcity for 10 years.
