In water starved Rajasthan, CCI is working with Jal Bhagirathi Foundation, to set up a series of rainwater harvesting projects around the Thar Desert to substantially improve the availability of drinking water in the region. The unique feature of the project is that the poor but highly enthusiastic local community contributed 25% of the cost through voluntary donation of labour and we supported the project with the balance 75%.

The resultant - nearly one lakh villagers in seven districts around Thar desert have drinking water around the year.
