Our Story

When Carol visited India in 2016, she witnessed the plight of the families living in the rural parts of the nation. She was concerned with the everyday struggle for procuring clean water and the lack of basic sanitation facilities.

She learned that roughly 163 million individuals in India lack access to safe drinking water (according to WaterAid’s The Water Gap: State of Water 2018 report) and wanted to help make a difference. Carol, along with Jorawar, her long-time friend in India, were inspired to start Bright Pines Foundation.

Bright Pines Foundation is committed to offering smart solutions to fight the water crisis globally, with its first project to be launched in India. Through innovatively-designed water vending machines and other water solutions, we aim to touch millions of lives by giving them access to clean water and sanitation. In the future, we hope to expand potable water solutions and prevent water-borne illnesses and malnutrition.

Our Vision

Our vision is to make the world a place where no one is denied fundamental access to clean water and healthy sanitation. We want to develop long-term sustainable solutions that aid communities overcome problems caused due to scarcity of water.

It is also our mission to provide water to nations hit by natural disasters and help transform the lives of its citizens.
