Enterprise 01
Pure Water Packaging —
Clean Water for All
Access to safe drinking water is not a luxury — it is a right. Our water packaging plant was established in 2015 to address a critical gap in our community, where waterborne illness rates were among the highest in the district.
Today, our facility produces and distributes affordable, certified packaged drinking water to homes, schools, hospitals, and businesses across the region — while generating consistent revenue that funds our children's programs.
Key Clients
Hospitals, secondary schools, offices, local market distributors and the wider community.
Certification
Certified by the Food Safety Authority. Regular water quality testing conducted.
Local Empowerment
We prioritise hiring from the surrounding community, creating jobs and equipping residents with valuable skills and experience.
Health Impact
Waterborne illness in our distribution area has reduced significantly since 2015.
Sustainable Impact
Income from this enterprise strengthens the long-term sustainability of Rain Edge International and its life-changing programmes.
Enterprise 02
Bakery —
Fresh Every Morning
Our community bakery was born from a simple idea: the same skills we teach our youth in vocational training should produce real products for real people. Established in 2019, the bakery now produces fresh bread, rolls, pastries, and cakes every morning before sunrise.
Products are sold to local schools for their feeding programmes, market vendors, hospitals, and directly to community members — making affordable, fresh-baked goods accessible to everyone in the area.
Daily Production
Over 500 loaves and 200 pastry units baked fresh every morning from 4am.
School Supply
Official bread supplier to local schools, including Rain Edge Primary and Secondary.
Employment
Over 10 full-time staff — all from the local community.
Products
White bread, whole wheat, dinner rolls, meat pies, doughnuts, and custom cakes.
Sustainable Impact
Income from this enterprise strengthens the long-term sustainability of Rain Edge International and its life-changing programmes.
Enterprise 03
Agriculture & Farming —
Growing What We Need
Our farm serves a dual purpose: it significantly reduces the food costs of the orphanage and schools, and it provides a living classroom for children and vocational trainees who are learning sustainable agricultural practices.
We cultivate a diverse range of crops across five acres of land, including vegetables, root crops, and fruit trees. Surplus produce is sold to local markets — adding an additional revenue stream to our enterprise portfolio.
Crops Grown
Maize, cassava, yam, plantain, tomatoes, peppers, leafy vegetables, and fruit trees.
Feeds the Home
Supplies up to 60% of the vegetables and root crops consumed at the orphanage and schools.
Market Sales
Surplus produce sold at local markets, generating additional income for programs.
Education Tool
Children learn composting, planting, irrigation, and harvesting as part of their curriculum.
Expansion Plans
Poultry farming and fish ponds are planned to further increase food self-sufficiency.
Enterprise 04
Expanding Ventures —
Building Tomorrow's Income
As our existing enterprises mature and become more profitable, we are investing in the next generation of social enterprises. Our expansion strategy is guided by three principles: community need, youth employment, and long-term financial sustainability for our programs.
We currently have three ventures in the planning and early development phase, each designed to deepen our impact and reduce our dependence on external donations.
Maize Flour Milling
A maize milling facility is planned to process locally sourced maize into quality flour for use in our schools, children's home, and surrounding communities while creating jobs and supporting local farmers.
Poultry Farm
A poultry project is in development to supply eggs and chicken to the home, schools, and local markets — creating new employment opportunities for community members.
Partner Opportunity
We are actively seeking corporate partners and investors to co-fund these ventures in exchange for branding, CSR recognition, or social return agreements.
Target Timeline
First new venture is expected to launch within 18 months, subject to funding and partnership commitments.
Community Impact
More Than Just Revenue
Our enterprises do not exist solely to fund our programs. They are active contributors to the health, economy, and wellbeing of the communities around us.
1,000+
Households With Clean Water
Our water plant distributes to over 1,000 households in our district, directly reducing waterborne illness rates in a previously underserved area.
