Community Water Systems: A Community Lifeline
A community water system is more than a clean water source — it’s a lifeline. By donating towards a sustainable water project, you help hundreds of people in rural, drought-affected regions access safe, clean drinking water every single day.
What Is a Community Water System?
A community water system is an engineered setup designed to serve an entire village or neighbourhood with reliable, clean water for daily use. These systems typically last 15 to 20 years, offering long-term access to one of life’s most essential resources.
How Community Water Systems Work
- Water is sourced from lakes, rivers, or deep boreholes.
- It is then pumped into elevated storage tanks.
- Pipes distribute the clean water across multiple collection points within the community.
- Systems are designed to function sustainably, even in drought-prone environments.
This infrastructure is especially vital for communities without reliable water access, reducing illness and saving hours spent fetching water from unsafe or distant sources.
Where MAA Builds Community Water Systems
MAA currently builds community water systems in:
- Indonesia

We identify the most critical locations based on community needs, water scarcity, and long-term benefit. These projects often support hundreds of beneficiaries, including children, elderly residents, and entire households.
What You Receive as a Donor
When you donate to build a community water system through MAA:
