The Co-operative Bank of Kenya has partnered with Water.Org Africa to provide businesses operating in Water, Sanitation & Hygiene Sector with financial capacity to grow and expand in their areas.
Co-op Bank Director Retail & Business Banking, William Ndumia and Water.Org Africa Business Director Anthony Githinji signed an agreement on Thursday, October 17, commencing the journey to a strong market drive.
“We believe water is the best investment the world can make to improve health, empower women, enable access to education, increase family income and change lives.
“Yet, 2.2 billion people lack access to safe water. We’re working to change this. Water.org is a global nonprofit organization working to bring water and sanitation to the world,” Githinji said.
He further said Water.org is fortunate to work with partners – corporations, foundations, financial institutions, individuals, and brands – who share same passion and vision.
“Our partnerships come in all shapes and sizes — from multi-year grants to consumer-facing campaigns. There are a variety of ways we can partner to help us both achieve our goals and make more possible for families living in poverty,” he added.
