Siekopai Water Project

The elders of the Siekopai community walk long distances, often carrying heavy loads of water back to their homes. This campaign is more than a project to bring water—it is a mission to protect the legacy of the Siekopai people. Every donation directly contributes to preserving a way of life that is on the verge of disappearing.

A mission to protect the legacy of the Siekopai people

Dear water warriors, the Siekopai people are facing a water crisis. Contaminated water sources and prolonged droughts have left their community with extremely limited access to clean water. They rely on rainwater collection, but their elders must travel long distances to find water—an unsustainable and urgent situation.

Drill a 30-meter-deep well to provide consistent access to clean water.

Install water storage tanks

Mapping of the village infrastructure and integration with solar

Install a rainwater collection system with a 5000L capacity.

Install state-of-the art water filters for clean drinking water

Watershed testing and pilot for scalability

Their current water source

As seen in the image, a Siekopai community member collects water in large plastic jugs from a stream surrounded by soil and debris, contaminating the water and making it unsafe for consumption. Though vital for survival, this untreated water poses a significant health risk.

This is their reality—a fragile water source in the midst of the Amazon rainforest, far from the clean, safe drinking water they desperately need.

Rivers are drying up, leaving no reliable sources of clean water

Severe droughts have pushed water levels to historic lows, making access to clean water nearly impossible for the Siekopai—Indigenous stewards of the Amazon.

With rivers drying up and traditional water sources disappearing, the community is facing a water emergency. Without immediate action:

•⁠ ⁠They have no reliable access to safe drinking water.
•⁠ ⁠Traditional water collection points are no longer viable.
•⁠ ⁠Their health, safety, and future are at serious risk.
This isn’t just a crisis—it’s a fight for survival.

At WaterNowUS, we are committed to bringing clean, safe water to the Siekopai.
