Support b.water­MIS­SION, a project of AQUA Pearls For You and Planet Blue Foun­da­tion*. With this project, we have set ourselves the goal of building wells in mainly rural areas of Gambia and Tanzania, thereby ensuring the access to clean drinking water. With b.water­MIS­SION, the basis for the sustain­able and reli­able imple­men­ta­tion is already set. Now it is our (joint) task to build as many taps as possible. Sustain­able water systems With any dona­tion you can make a differ­ence. Our targets for the building of taps: Creating aware­ness, that water – the elixir of life – is of VALUE. Ensuring sustain­able oper­a­tion via online moni­toring and on-site main­te­nance: Construc­tion of several thou­sand taps in the next few years Access to safe and clean drinking water Ensuring, that nobody has to walk further than 150 m to the next tapping point “Before the tap was only open at 9am to 12pm and in the evening also 5-6pm. It was so diffi­cult for us, honestly. It’s so perfect now, because anytime you need water you can get it, even at midnight.” Asanatou Mballow, Female Villager, Jarreng How it works The b.water­MIS­SION tap is an intel­li­gent water dispenser which ensures, that the oper­a­tion is tech­ni­cally moni­tored. All income can be tracked, controlled, and used trans­par­ently by private orga­ni­za­tions or author­i­ties to be able to pay for the ongoing main­te­nance of the systems. Previous Payment via mobile phone and NFC tech­nology The villagers can use their mobile phone to purchase a b.water­MIS­SION credit, which is saved on the b.water­MIS­SION tag. With remote prepay­ment, trace­able water credits can be sent to the taps by author­i­ties, the local villagers, but also by donors all around the world. The b.water­MIS­SION tech­nology even works in rural areas with poor data connec­tions, as low-bandwidth mobile connec­tion is used. In remote areas, the NFC tech­nology enables the consumers to load the credit directly on the tag and there­with source water from the tap. Next 1 2 3 Why b.water­MIS­SION?
