About Us
Water is where health, dignity and opportunity begin
Purple Favor Venturers was founded and formally registered in 2022 and is based in Nakuru County. We are a community-rooted social enterprise built around a single, practical idea: a borehole the community already trusts, treated to a standard families deserve, and priced so that everyone can afford it.
Our mission
To improve access to safe water, promote better health, and build a sustainable, scalable solution to Nakuru's growing water challenges.

Clean water within walking distance
Shorter journeys, safer water, more time for school, work and family.
The Challenge
Nakuru's water gap is widening
Demand has outgrown supply, and what is available is not always safe to drink.
High fluoride levels
Naturally occurring fluoride in Rift Valley groundwater causes dental and skeletal fluorosis when left untreated.
Climate pressure
Longer dry spells and erratic rainfall keep shrinking recharge, deepening the county's seasonal deficit.
Unequal burden
Women and low-income households walk furthest and pay the most per litre for water they cannot always trust.

Our Solution
Three moving parts, one dependable system
Proven infrastructure, the right treatment technology and clean energy — working together.
Existing Borehole
A reliable, community-anchored water source already drilled, tested and producing — no waiting for new infrastructure.
Water Treatment Facility
Fluoride-removal technology and multi-stage filtration turn raw groundwater into genuinely safe drinking water.
Solar Powered Pumping
A transition to solar cuts operating costs, stabilises pricing for families and protects the environment.
Built to run cleanly, and to keep running
Fluoride-removal treatment paired with solar-powered pumping means safe water at a lower cost per litre, with far less exposure to fuel prices and power outages. Every efficiency gained is passed on to the families we serve.
- Multi-stage filtration and disinfection
- Fluoride reduction to safe drinking levels
- Phased solar transition for pumping
How It Works
From aquifer to household, in five steps
- Step 1
Water Extraction
Groundwater is pumped from our own community borehole at a monitored, sustainable abstraction rate.
- Step 2
Water Treatment
Fluoride removal, filtration and disinfection bring every litre within safe drinking water standards.
- Step 3
Quality Assurance
Routine laboratory and on-site testing verifies purity before a single jerrycan leaves the plant.
- Step 4
Community Distribution
Water points, refill stations and local delivery keep clean water within walking distance and within budget.
- Step 5
Revenue Reinvestment
Earnings fund operations, solar upgrades and new service areas — growth that pays for itself.
