"Access to clean water and hygiene for all, worldwide"
Marie-Stella-Maris foundation
With the establishment of the Marie-Stella-Maris company, the foundationof the same name was created. Through this foundation, sustainable Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) projects are independently selected. In this way, we ensure that the contribution of all Marie-Stella-Maris products you buy will benefit the right projects.
By carefully selecting the projects and then monitoring them closely during and after realization, we strive to ensure that each project contributes structurally. In this process, we work closely with our partner Aqua for All. Aqua for All is a non-profit organization founded by the Dutch water sector and is known for its expertise in water, sanitation and hygiene-related challenges.
Impact on thousands
Since 2011, we have been able to support 14 water projects in different countries, including Uganda, Mozambique, Bangladesh and Tanzania. As a result, thousands of people have already gained sustainable access to clean water. Improving water, sanitation and hygiene work together to improve overall health. Access to sanitation facilities, such as simple latrines in communities, prevents contamination of drinking water by human waste and reduces infections. In addition to the value of lives saved, there are other benefits of access to clean water. Such as increased economic productivity, more time for education and savings in doctor's fees.
