Let's come together to dramatically transform the lives of the women in rural areas of Maharashtra through this simple innovation called the Water Wheels. 



There is an identified demand for 1000+ Water Wheels in the following areas of Maharashtra. 

They are located in the Palghar area of Thane district and are just 2 hours from Mumbai. Many are dominated by tribals. Village wise identified need for the first 600 Water Wheels is as under.

  1. Darshet – 150 families
  2. Khadakoli – 100 families
  3. Karasuda – 100 families
  4. Virathan Katkaripada - 60 families
  5. Babarpada – 55 families
  6. Dhobhadipada – 50 families
  7. Lalthane – 45 families
  8. Kirapada – 40 families

NILKAMAL PLASTICS

Nilkamal Ltd along with Wello, a social venture to manufacture and market the Nilkamal Wello Water Wheel.

Technology has fundamentally changed so many aspects of daily life for consumers across the globe for the better. However, one thing that hasn’t changed is the fact that over one billion women and girls still spend hours every day hauling heavy loads of water to their homes. The practice of head loading can cause chronic back, neck, and eye pain, the curvature of the spine, and can lead to death during childbirth.

The Water Wheel is the revolutionary flagship of Nilkamal’s line of 'social impact’ solutions; products designed to meet the needs of marginalized or vulnerable populations. Other products in the category include ultra low-flow toilets, school desks, waste bins, relief bedding, storage solutions and so on. Nilkamal is a household brand across the country and has been India’s Favourite Furniture Brand for over 3 decades. The brand vows to take the Water Wheel to the very doors of the needy, at an affordable price, through its extensive distribution network.

FAQs

Will we get to know the details of how the money was spent? 

Yes. After the money has been collected it will be transferred by Fueladream to Rotary Club Bombay Central Island Trust. It will take from 60 to 120 days after that to get details of who the beneficiary was with details of them. 

When do I get the receipts?

It takes up to 2-3 weeks after the campaign is closed for the monies to be transferred to the NGO. The receipts will start getting processed about 6 weeks AFTER the campaign is closed and will be sent to you directly.

How does crowdfunding work?

Crowdfunding in India is a relatively new concept & is growing very quickly.

It’s a concept that allows a large number of funders (like you) to fund an idea or a cause or event by giving small amounts of money online. Fueladream.com is a crowdfunding platform in India that allows for such pooling of funds. You can fund innovations & ideas on FuelADream and be the first to get these products or make them come true. You can also do a good turn by funding charities and causes through crowdfunding. When you fund a charity it’s more like a donation & you get small innovative rewards like a shout-out on an FB page or a thank you email from the beneficiaries.
