This strategic collaboration incorporates funding, technical resources and expertise. Why Water-Share? "My visits to Uganda and Sierra Leone with GOAL highlighted how this collaboration, using the skills and expertise of the sector, can deliver major benefits in terms of drinking water supply, faecal sludge management, training and capability building in rural communities. The impact of the collaboration hit home when I visited the Macca community in Sierra Leone and the community leader pointed to the smiling healthy children who before were constantly falling ill and not thriving. In its delivery of basic services to communities who need them, Water-Share Ireland gives sector companies and staff a unique opportunity for cross-sector collaboration, benefitting both recipient communities and those contributing to the work.” Jerry Grant, founder Water-Share Ireland The problem in numbers Water-Share's Impact Overview Sierra Leone Uganda Syria Making a difference Water-Share Ireland’s collaboration with GOAL added considerable value to GOAL’s WASH programming in 2019.
