more about FRANK - in their own words
FRANK Water is a pioneering social enterprise that donates 100% of its profits to sustainable 5-filter clean water projects via its charity arm, FRANK Water Projects.
FRANK funds sustainable projects that provide clean, safe drinking water by installing the world's most effective water filtering process - 5 stage, UV filtering technology, built into a community owned and run facilities. FRANK funds world wide clean water projects.
FRANK has funded the installation of 4 projects in Andhra Pradesh, India. An additional 4 more projects in this area are currently under development- benefiting 48 000 people to date.
Each project costs £6,700 and provides clean, safe drinking water for up to 6,000 people in the surrounding communities. FRANK Water staff make annual, self funded visits to the villages and meet with our partners to ensure the sustainability and effectiveness of the projects.
sustainable, community run projects
FRANK works closely with Naandi, a local Indian NGO, to identify communities that require clean water facilities. Naandi commits to work in every village that has a facility on all related water issues, including agricultural practices, irrigation, sanitation etc.
Once a project has been set up, it is owned, run and maintained by the local community, with WHI and Naandi on hand providing support. Local operators (from that specific village) are trained to operate and maintain the facility.
Villagers pay 1 rupee for every 15 litres of safe drinking water. This price is set by Naandi and is affordable (est. 50p per year, per person for drinking water).
The 1 Rupee is split into thirds; one third goes towards the operators' salaries, the second third helps to pay for filters and parts, whilst the last third is reinvested into the community.
