A ripple of hope
Our second water project
We are pleased to announce that our latest clean water initiative is officially finished. Families and individuals in Alac, Uganda, now enjoy a continuous supply of safe drinking water.
For 372 local residents, this milestone brings truly life-changing transformation. In Uganda, access to safe drinking water remains a daily challenge for many rural communities; only 18% of the population has access to safely managed drinking water services, leaving millions without reliable water where they live.
Brought to life by our partnership with charity: water, this vital new well with a hand pump provides a monumental shift for the community toward better health and opportunity in a region where access to clean water is critically important.
It stands as another strong testament that opting for sustainable laptops does far more than reduce environmental footprints, it actively transforms lives and empowers communities.
Well with a hand pump
The solution we funded
We funded the construction of a well with hand pump - a frequently chosen solution for its cost-effectiveness and easy, community-led maintenance.
These wells are ideal for communities with safe, plentiful groundwater.
The hand pump, which is installed onto a drilled, lined, and quality-tested borehole. This robust design ensures clean groundwater is reliably brought to the surface, offering long-term access to safe water for the Alac community.
So a huge thank you to the loyalty of our customers, who chose our laptops and enabled this activity.
Combined impact so far
592 people with easy access to clean water, all day, every day.
Thanks to every customer who chose a Circular Computing laptop.
Shared goals
Amplified impact
At Circular Computing, we believe sustainability isn't just about carbon-neutral laptops only rather it's about empowering the people who will build tomorrow's world.
As our CEO Rod Neale said, “Despite its abundance in the West, the planet is going through a water crisis – and all of us must play our part. It is not acceptable that nearly 10% of the world do not have access to clean, safe drinking water.
We not only want to cut the environmental cost of IT production within the sector, but through our partnership with charity: water, deliver a positive impact that extends beyond our industry, helping give families access to clean, safe water”.
For every laptop we sell we provide a family with clean water for a week
For people in developing countries, clean water can change everything - health, time, education and female empowerment.
