Dispensers for Safe Water: Each year, over 1.8 million children
under the age of five die from diarrhea, a leading cause of which is unsafe
drinking water. DSW is an entrepreneurial team tasked with scaling the Chlorine
Dispenser System (CDS) – a proven innovation for dramatically expanding access
to water treatment at extremely low cost.
DSW’s work is growing rapidly – we currently serve over 1 million people in
Kenya, our primary country of operations, and plan to reach 25 million in the
next 5 years. Our program has ambitious plans to expand in 2-3 countries in the
coming 2 years.
Our work is based on strong proof of Chlorine Dispenser impact – a randomized
controlled trial in Western Kenya demonstrated a six-fold increase in the
number of households treating their water with chlorine.
