About
THE GAZELLE FOUNDATION BRINGS
CLEAN WATER AND TRANSFORMATIVE CHANGE
TO BURUNDI ONE VILLAGE AT A TIME.
We built our purpose in our founder’s footsteps: Gilbert Tuhabonye has embraced a life of joy and forgiveness. For Gilbert, the burn scars on his body remain a daily reminder of surviving a horrific genocide in 1993. For the people who know him, Gilbert embodies the power of optimism and perseverance. We believe that regardless of circumstances or obstacles, anyone can make the world a better, more compassionate place.
As Gilbert says, "water is the number one issue in Africa. Water is everywhere - but it is not clean."
Burundi is one of the poorest countries in the world, and the leading cause of death is from preventable, waterborne diseases. Clean water is the foundation for improved health, better educational opportunities, safer communities, and economic investment. Most of all, it provides hope to a country mostly forgotten by the world.
All Gazelle Foundation water systems provide clean water, free of charge, for life to all community members - regardless of tribe, ethnicity, or religion - with the aim of fostering long-term peace and stability in the region. Due to our unique structure and in-country partners, our cost to build water systems is lower than average, and working in a single, small country means it is easy to track the long-term impact. To date, over 130,000 people have daily access to clean water because of generous supporters of Gilbert, our dynamic board of directors, and hundreds of volunteers work tirelessly to bring awareness to the needs of the Burundian people while educating our local community about the importance of the global water crisis and the need for humanitarian aid in Burundi.
