“We are projecting to impact over five million lives including those of children, because we believe households and not individuals will be benefiting from the investment. If it is a public toilet, that means a community of about five thousand people would have access to improved sanitation and safe water,” said Joyce Owusu-Dabo, Programmes Manager for the company.

Sinapi Aba for the past three years has invested GH¢ 13.7 million in WASH related businesses.
