Atlas Copco's Water for All project changes the lives of primary school children in KZN

Through the Water for All project, Atlas Copco, a leading provider of sustainable industrial productivity solutions, sets out to make clean, potable water a possibility for all and the latest beneficiaries of this remarkable initiative are learners from the Mhlazane Primary School in Rorke’s Drift, Kwa-Zulu Natal. The Water for All project finances the installation of infrastructure and facilities that promote accessibility to clean water for disadvantaged communities in the rural areas. The project was first introduced to the Rorke’s Drift area in 2011 and commenced with the drilling of three boreholes by Atlas Copco, in association with local NGO, the David Rattray Foundation. “Mhlazane Primary school was one of the beneficiaries of the project which was completed in late 2012,” explains Kgothatso Ntsie, Atlas Copco South Africa’s Corporate Communications Manager, South and sub-Sahara Africa.
