Philippines

The very nature of Manila Water’s business of providing water especially to low-income communities enables it to have the unique opportunity to integrate social responsibility with its mainstream operations. Through the company’s flagship program, ‘Tubig Para sa Barangay’ (TPSB) or Water for the Community, Manila Water has demonstrated its commitment to the poor by attending to and addressing their need for a regular supply of clean, safe and more affordable drinking water. Launched in late 1998, the TPSB program is specifically designed for areas where there are clusters of low-income communities, including informal settlers, and where there is poor quality of water arising from the proliferation of illegal water service connections.
To date, over 600 low-income communities in the East Zone of Metro Manila, including hundreds of informal settlers, have benefited from this program. This brings the number of poor people who are now enjoying clean and affordable water to over one million..

Poland

With our partners, we provide water and wastewater services to 300,000 people in the southern Polish city of Bielsko-Biala and nine neighbouring communities.
