More than one billion people lack access to safe drinking water. Every day, diseases that could be avoided with better quality of the water kill thousands of children, most of them with less than five years. There are several projects for execution of civil works related to water to deal with this global crisis.
Already in 1984, more than twenty years before the campaign 'Water for life', Atlas copco employees released the 'Water For All' (water for all) campaign. Since then the Organization has contributed to more than one million people have access to safe, much-needed water for life.
Currently, Atlas Copco Spain has joined this struggle working with the NGO 'Peace movement' in the construction of a drinking water well in Mali. To be able to work with Water For All, the employees of the company can work by donating a fixed monthly amount, minus his salary. In turn, Atlas Copco Spain will provide a donation equivalent to the proceeds by the employees. This project, like the rest of the projects of the other countries that make up the Group Atlas Copco, are supervised by the Council of the Organization to ensure that the money raised will reach its final destination.
Since 1984, Atlas Copco has contributed to that more than one million people have access to safe drinking water.
