Turning Rain Into Safe Water for Schools with Danny Wright

from Line of Sight Podcast · host Miller Center for Social Entrepreneurship

Welcome to "Founders of Impact," our Line of Sight spin-off series that delves into the remarkable journeys of founders who are redefining success by combining business innovation with a commitment to positive societal change. In each episode, host Karen Runde, Miller Center's Senior Director of Academics & Entrepreneur Network, engages in candid and insightful conversations with visionaries who have dared to challenge the status quo. Discover the origins of their enterprise, strategies, challenges, and triumphs that shape the landscape of social entrepreneurship. 

In our latest Founders Impact episode, Danny Wright, founder of Gravity Water and CloudWell, shares how he built two global ventures by turning rain into clean water. He discusses how he scaled operations from 50 to over 500 schools, the role Miller Center’s mentorship played in helping him secure partnerships with UNICEF and access carbon funding, and why he believes building resilience is more important than chasing shiny awards. Gravity Water is part of the portfolio of social enterprises supported through the Miller Center–Chevron Climate Resilience Initiative, which strives to help reduce poverty, drive economic and social opportunities, and develop the entrepreneurial ecosystem in the Asia Pacific region.
