How we work
What a project means here
A project, and what it sits inside
An initiative is a standing programme area we work in year after year. A project is one bounded piece of work inside it, with its own site, budget, timeline and finish date. Drilling three boreholes in Benue State is a project; Borehole & Water Access is the initiative it belongs to. Every project on this page names both.
Two commitments in every project
The work is surveyed before it is funded. A borehole sunk in the wrong place is a wasted investment no matter how well it is drilled, so each site is surveyed before drilling begins, wellheads and aprons are built to keep surface run-off out of the supply, and water quality is tested before any handover. The same discipline applies away from water: the Enugu cooperative was designed around the three things actually constraining its members — capital an individual trader cannot raise, buyers who will not deal with individuals, and the absence of any legal entity a lender could lend to.
We hand over and step back. Across the water sector, wells fail far more often because a pump breaks and nobody is responsible for fixing it than because the drilling was poor. So every borehole is handed to a trained community water committee with a small maintenance fund, and a fault is resolved locally in days rather than waiting on a visit from outside. A project has succeeded when it keeps running without us, not when we finish it.
Why three projects, when we have completed sixteen
The difference is time, not accounting. We began this work in 2019, and for the first years it was funded personally by our founder, before Enthrone Initiatives was registered and able to accept donations. Those earlier projects are real and they are counted in our totals — but they are not listed individually here, because the per-project financial records this page links to only exist from registration onward.
We would rather show you three projects with a published ledger behind each than sixteen without one.
How a project is paid for, and reported
Each project carries a published target. Money given to it is recorded against it, and every payment made from it — vendor, amount and date — appears in the public ledger under that project's name. Where a project reports a number of people reached, that figure is a conservative count of direct beneficiaries, not an estimate of everyone in the surrounding community.
