Madagascar

A group of projects aiming to improve living conditions and expand opportunities through sustainable practices, education, and healthcare.

Imerintsiatosika City Water Project

Horizons of Light Inc. is undertaking its first water project in Imerintsiatosika, a lively town just a 45-minute drive from the capital of Madagascar. As of 2023, only 7 out of 36 fokontany (neighborhoods) have partial access to clean water. Our goal is to provide clean drinking water to around 36,000 people in 9 neighborhoods.
