This year again, on the occasion of World Water Day, the SFA Group is offering a grant of 10,000 euros (matched by a similar amount from a private foundation) to the Water Planet Foundation association for the installation of an Aquatower in the Kronhung primary school (Siem Reap province), Cambodia, which has 164 students.

Installed on 10 March 2025, this equipment provides access to drinking water to cover the daily needs of some 1,800 people. A true guarantee of pure, drinkable water without risks, the AquaTower   can produce up to 1,000 liters of water per hour and operate autonomously, without a power supply.  Drinking water is produced by gravity via three-stage filtration using hollow-fiber membrane technology with ultrafiltration and activated carbon, eliminating all pathogens (bacteria, fungi, protozoa, parasitic worms, viruses and other contaminants).

The AquaTower is equipped with 6 water distribution points, with liquid soap dispensers for hand washing.

The installation of the AquaTower at this rural Cambodian school was also accompanied by a day of hygiene training for the students, and its maintenance will be monitored with 10 visits over four years. 

Planet Water Foundation is a non-profit organization whose mission is to bring drinking water to the most disadvantaged communities installing community water filtration systems. It also runs hygiene education programs.
