Woolies Water Fund logo

All schools in South Africa should have access to clean water.

Together, we can ensure that schools have a sustainable water supply, by providing rain water tanks and handwashing stations to schools who don’t have access to clean water.

Help us get water to schools by choosing the Woolies Water Fund as your cause.

Help more schools get clean water, without it costing you a cent!

HOW DOES THE WATER FUND
WORK?

Together with Woolworths, we started the WOOLIES WATER FUND to help give schools sustainable access to clean water.

Woolies Water Fund gives back by:

  • Installing rainwater harvesting infrastructure and tanks.
  • Installing sturdy handwashing stations.
  • Upgrading borehole pumps and filtration systems to benefit the entire community.

Every swipe of your MySchool MyVillage MyPlanet card helps us to ensure that as many schools as possible have access to clean and sustainable water for a safe, hygienic, start in life.

Since 2018, we’ve installed 172 rainwater tanks and infrastructure, and more than 600 handwashing stations across 100 schools in regions that face drought conditions. In addition, we have distributed hygiene kits that include 40 000 hand sanitisers, soap and bleach to schools and communities in need.

In 2023, Woolies is committed to installing rainwater tanks, infrastructure, filtration systems and handwashing stations in an additional 20 schools. These actions showcase our commitment to Inclusive Justice through impactful change.
