Sanivation partnered with Rippleworks to build a world-class business development process

Sanivation is a social enterprise dedicated to improving the overall dignity, health, and environment of urbanizing communities in East Africa by delivering clean, safe, and efficient sanitation services. Sanivation has partnered with local governments to provide more than 20,000 people access to improved sanitation services, safely removing more than 150 tons of infectious waste from communities since 2014.
