Providing Sustainable Solutions for Kenyan Communities

Dig Deep works in partnership with communities in East Africa to help improve access to clean water and renewable energy. We work with local people to drill wells, harness rainwater and create renewable energy supplies. In doing this we help communities to make sustainable improvements in health, education, gender equality, the local economy, and the surrounding environment.

We are committed to working in genuine partnership with communities, ensuring they are involved and can contribute to every aspect of a project - right from the planning stages up to when they take ownership of a project and look after its long term maintenance for generations to come.

All of our projects use renewable energy because we believe this is the most sustainable option, both for local communities and the planet. In doing this we continue to maintain the lowest possible administration costs through being run almost entirely by volunteers - employing only one paid member of staff - and operating without offices either in the UK or overseas.

Our Objectives

To promote sustainable development for the benefit of the public by the relief of poverty and the improvement of the conditions of life in disadvantaged communities through supporting or generating projects based on self-reliance in East Africa.

To benefit the public of urban or rural communities in areas of social and economic deprivation (and in particular East Africa) by the maintenance, improvement or provision of public amenities with a concentration on clean water supplies or by other exclusively charitable means as the trustees shall from time to time determine.
