Support Start with One: Transforming Lives in Zambia
Start with One and Change a Community
In a small Zambian village, over 1,200 children attend school each day, persevering through tough conditions. The school suffers from leaking roofs, no electricity, inadequate bathroom facilities, and a lack of solar power. Recreational spaces for children are nonexistent, and families must travel miles to access basic healthcare due to the absence of a local clinic.
At Start with One, our mission is to address these challenges. By renovating the school and building a clinic, we aim to meet the community’s most pressing needs. With your support, we can create lasting change—starting with one step, one act of kindness, and one transformed community.

Water Neighborhoods are self-sustaining, solar-powered communities designed to provide clean water, renewable energy, sanitation, and sustainable farming. They support artisanal mining communities by addressing water scarcity, improving living conditions, and promoting economic growth.
Water Neighborhoods operate through: • Solar-Powered Wells – Provide clean drinking water, irrigation, and sanitation. • Water Recycling Systems Capture and purify rainwater for reuse. • Waste Management Processes waste into fertilizer for crops. • Irrigation Systems Support farming and local food production. • Sedimentation and Infiltration Ponds Naturally filter water back into aquifers. • Renewable Energy Grids Solar panels power homes, businesses, and water systems.
Artisanal miners often work in remote areas lacking basic infrastructure. Water Neighborhoods provide access to clean water, sanitation, energy, and food production, improving health and productivity while fostering local economic opportunities.
• Solar-Powered Water Wells: Provide drinking water, irrigation, and sanitation. • Sanitation Systems: Recycle waste into fertilizer. • Rainwater Collection: Captures rainwater for reuse. • Small Business Zones: Enable processing and sale of farm products. • Sustainable Housing: Built in flood-free areas with access to water and power. • Agricultural Support: Farms supply food and water to the neighborhood. • Job Creation: Generates employment in farming, water management, and energy maintenance.
• Water Recycling: Reduces waste and prevents contamination. • Solar Energy: Eliminates reliance on fossil fuels. • Eco-Friendly Farming: Uses organic fertilizers produced from recycled waste. • Rainwater Harvesting: Prevents water runoff and recharges groundwater.
• Jobs in Construction and Maintenance – Building and maintaining wells, solar grids, and irrigation systems. • Farming and Food Production – Supporting local agriculture and markets. • Small Businesses – Enabling processing, packaging, and sale of farm products. • Training Programs – Educating residents on sustainable practices and resource management.
• Clean Water Access: Eliminates water scarcity and improves health. • Sanitation Facilities: Provides hygiene and waste recycling systems. • Renewable Energy: Powers homes and businesses sustainably. • Food Security: Supports farming and irrigation for consistent food supply. • Market Growth: Creates trade opportunities for farmers and artisans. • Education and Training: Empowers communities with new skills and knowledge.
Solar panels provide renewable energy for: • Water pumps and wells. • Lighting for homes and roads. • Sanitation and waste recycling systems. Excess solar energy can also be stored or distributed to local businesses.
Water is filtered through sedimentation ponds and infiltration systems, mimicking natural stream processes. It is further treated before being used for drinking or irrigation. Injection wells downstream prevent contamination of drinking water.
The goal is to build replicable, sustainable models for rural development globally turning remote mining villages into thriving, self-sustained communities with access to water, food, and jobs.
Investors can help by funding: • Well Construction Provides clean water access. • Solar Energy Systems Powers water and sanitation infrastructure. • Irrigation Networks Supports farming and food production. • Housing Projects Builds sustainable homes for workers and families. Investments generate returns through the sale of water, food, and energy produced within the community.
Water Neighborhoods combine modern water technology, renewable energy, and sustainable farming to eliminate scarcity. By providing access to essentials and creating jobs, they reduce poverty and offer long-term stability.
