Saha Global is a Ghana-based non-profit organization dedicated to providing safe and affordable drinking water to rural communities. The organization partners with women in last-mile villages, training them to launch and operate community water treatment centers. These centers use local products to treat contaminated water, making it safe for consumption. The treated water is then sold at an affordable price, ensuring that even the most vulnerable populations have access to clean water. Saha Global operates in the non-profit sector, focusing on rural areas in Ghana. Its business model revolves around empowering local women as water entrepreneurs, thereby creating sustainable water businesses that benefit the entire community. The organization generates revenue through the sale of treated water, which helps to fund its operations and expand its reach. Recently, Saha Global was awarded a $5 million grant from the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation, which will be used to further expand its efforts in providing safe water access to more rural communities in Ghana.
