Global Environment & Technology Foundation (GETF)
The Global Environment & Technology Foundation (GETF), established in 1988, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a mission to promote sustainable development through partnerships and targeted action. GETF works with public and private partners to build sustainable communities through the creation of high-impact partnerships, introducing new technologies and managing programs that have a lasting and positive impact on the world.
GETF leads the management of the Replenish Africa Initiative (RAIN), which is the signature community initiative of The Coca-Cola Africa Foundation. Active in 37 African countries, RAIN will positively transform the lives of at least 6 million people in Africa by 2020 through sustainable safe water access.
GETF also manages the Water and Development Alliance (WADA) and the Project Last Mile Partnership (PLM), both partnerships between The Coca-Cola Company and USAID. GETF also serves as the Secretariat for two high-impact water coalitions - Global Water Challenge and the US Water Partnership.
