We are a nonprofit social enterprise bridging the gap between available and safe water in rural communities. We provide ongoing, data-informed support to ensure continued access.
Much like hydrogen and oxygen need one another to form a covalent bond to create water, Cova relies on successful partnerships to provide comprehensive safe drinking water solutions to rural communities in Central America. We partner with communities to provide education opportunities and build capacity for self-sustaining, easy-to-maintain, and financially viable water treatment solutions that lead to healthy lives while allowing communities to be active participants in the process.
With staff in Nicaragua, Honduras, and El Salvador, Cova is a locally managed organization dedicated to the successful implementation of safe water solutions through tracking, evaluating, and revisiting community water treatment installations to ensure sustained impact. Our strong partnerships with local communities, nonprofits, and governmental organizations help us expand our reach and increase our effectiveness in our mission to build stronger, healthier communities.
We believe safe drinking water not only improves the health of rural communities in Central America but provides a basic need that lays the foundation for building a stronger, more prosperous life. By putting people first in our mission to end the water crisis, Cova delivers solutions that improve quality of life, allowing children to attend school, parents to earn crucial income, and communities to flourish.
Francisco Luna a Water Board President from Sabana Grande, Nicaragua was thrilled when Cova brought clean water to his community:
“Before Cova came to our community, my neighbors and I got sick from time to time and thought that this was normal. When Cova first came to Sabana Grande, they tested our water source and found that it was contaminated. We never knew we were drinking dirty water. We are fortunate to have this fixed, as I feel a responsibility to provide safe water for my community”.
