By facilitating the establishment of 8 new safe drinking water stations and promoting sustainable water kiosks, MARI has actively contributed to improving public health and community well-being.

Through capacity building, employment generation, and extensive awareness campaigns, MARI has empowered local communities to adopt safe drinking water practices. The organization has also supported digital payment adoption, water quality monitoring, and operational sustainability, ensuring long-term impact.
