Water.org’s primary solution is WaterCredit – small, affordable loans accessed by people at the base of the economic pyramid to install locally appropriate household water and sanitation solutions.

Water.org partners with local financial institutions to implement water and sanitation lending to people in need. Without Water.org, these organizations typically do not include water and sanitation loans in their portfolio. Water.org works with these institutions to de-risk this type of non- income generating loan and show partners how it can be profitable through technical assistance, market assessments, demand generation, and staff training.
