Fellows Program Jobs at Sanergy
Sanergy is an award-winning social venture that builds healthy,
prosperous communities by making hygienic sanitation accessible and affordable
in Africa’s urban informal settlements.
Our systems-based approach to solving the sanitation crisis
involves five key steps: we build a dense network of low-cost, high-quality
waterless sanitation facilities – called Fresh Life Toilets.
We provide critical support services – such as access to
finance, business analytics, training and aspirational marketing and branding.
We collect the waste regularly and safely remove it from the community for
treatment. We convert the waste into valuable end products, such as organic
fertilizer and insect-based animal protein, which we sell to Kenyan farms.
