What we do
We provide safe water solutions for children in the most vulnerable areas of the world. We focus on the hard-to-reach rural areas in developing countries since these are often the most neglected populations.
How do we eradicate water-borne diseases from hard-to-reach communities?
Partner Locally and Activate Schools
We have developed strategic partnership with local organizations in the areas we serve to help implement our projects. They help develop the project around the specific needs of each specific community. Our project leaders also facilitate a coordinated approach with any other WASH-related initiatives in place by the government health agencies. Most of our projects are women-led and require up to 100 volunteers to be successful.
Technology
Our patented Pure Shores CPS technology was developed to specifically end the water crisis in hard-to-reach areas. Each device can provide safe water for up to 2,000 people per day. It uniquely solves all three problems needed to eradicate water borne disease - water purification, surface sterilization, and handwashing with soap. And, it’s so easy, a child can operate it - which they usually do in our school-based projects.
Innovative Education
The long term impact of any water project relies upon our recipient’s adoption of the new behaviors needed. Our projects focus on children, so our education needs to be innovative and fun. We’ve made considerable investments to engage our school age children in dynamic WASH education.
Deliberate Sustainability
Sustainability is the most overused and under delivered word in the not-for-profit world. We believe every Untapped project must be set up to last long after our funding is exhausted.

Our Three Project Types
We have narrowed our focus to three project types which uniquely and sustainably end the water crisis while having the best return-on-investment for donor dollars.
School-based WASH projects
Our school-based WASH projects erase water-borne diseases quickly and permanently from the schools and health centers of a village.
I Stop Traffick - WASH for anti - trafficking
Our WASH for Anti-Trafficking projects using water entrepreneurship to end trafficking for vulnerable young girls in Mubende, Uganda. It’s a first-of-its-kind approach to simultaneously end trafficking with a solution that ends the water crisis in her village.
The Water Cup
The Water Cup is a ground-breaking approach to solving the water crisis for thousands of children through the use of the common language shared by children around the world, Soccer.
