Clean drinking water and a functioning energy supply are still not a matter of course in many parts of the world. Without functioning pipes and power lines, which bring water and energy to people in a similar way to the arteries in the human body, a decent life is not possible. Very often there is a lack of resources and education to improve the sometimes catastrophic conditions.
Against this background, Dr. Helmut Rothenberger established the TOOLS FOR LIFE Foundation in 2008, which today is committed to the sustainable common good of our society in the tradition of its founder.
TOOLS FOR LIFE has set itself the goal of connecting people in all regions of the world with the essential resources needed for a healthy life. This includes the material supply of energy and water as well as the development of immaterial resources such as education, training and coaching. In selected regions, TOOLS FOR LIFE has created a network of organizations and local partners that has built several educational facilities and water supply networks in recent years and continues to operate and maintain them to this day.
