Stiftung Wasser für die Welt supports practical, community-based water projects in developing countries, with a clear emphasis on rural areas and on helping families, children, and women gain sustainable access to safe drinking water. Its portfolio suggests a strong preference for infrastructure and self-help solutions such as wells, water towers, rainwater harvesting, solar pumps, sanitation, hygiene training, and agricultural water access, often delivered through local or faith-based implementing partners. The foundation appears to favor projects that build long-term local capacity rather than short-term aid.
Project-based grants for specific water-access initiatives, typically in developing countries and rural communities. Applications are due by September 30; giving appears to be annual or periodic, with project-specific support rather than unrestricted funding, and many grants are likely relatively modest to medium-sized infrastructure awards.

Submit a project-specific application by September 30 and clearly show how the project will provide sustainable access to clean water for a rural community. Strong applications should include local ownership, maintenance/training plans, and a concrete infrastructure solution (e.g., well, tank, pump, or WASH component) with measurable beneficiary impact.
