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 franchise the toilets to community
residents, who run them as commercial toilets; landlords, who offer them as a
value-added service to their tenants; and schools, to ensure children always
have access to a safe sanitation option.
We launched our first toilet in
November 2011, and we now have a network of over 600 active Fresh Life Toilets
run by over 300 Fresh Life Operators. We have collected and converted over
7,800 tons of waste. At the same time, we have built a team of over 250 people.
