We work toward the audacious goal of strengthening 19 partner organizations reaching 686,000 people every eight years. And ultimately, to share in the joy of ending the water and HIV/AIDS crises – with our partners and in this lifetime.
We work toward the audacious goal of strengthening 19 partner organizations reaching 686,000 people every eight years. And ultimately, to share in the joy of ending the water and HIV/AIDS crises – with our partners and in this lifetime.
Since 2004, we’ve partnered with 33 organizations in 12 countries. We focus on areas with the highest prevalence of HIV/AIDS and lack of access to clean water, which have historically been in sub-Saharan Africa.
Our partnership portfolio includes a maximum of 10 partners at a time, working with each for up to 8 years. Each partner's programming extends to multiple villages and rural communities in their region, impacting hundreds of families with each project implemented.
Blood:Water finds, vets & conducts due diligence to identify growth-minded, community-driven organizations that are impacting their communities. Our process to identify partner organizations takes nearly a year from application to establishing the partnership. We invest time and energy in this process to ensure mutual alignment and long-term success.
A key element of our vetting process involves visiting potential partners in person. Meeting face-to-face and interacting with the local community helps us determine which partners are genuinely involved with and known by their beneficiaries. In other words, the communities we aim to serve help to guide our partnership decisions.
Each of these partners has been an important part of our missional work and learning over the years, and we look forward to growing the list in the coming years!

"Blood:Water's approach centers partnership, and they also recognize that there isn't a one-size fits all solution, that they need to understand and follow African-based, -led organizations to find the solutions that are going to take hold."
