Hope Spring Water – board of trustees

Meet some of the people behind Hope Spring. Thanks to them, we are helping to reduce water poverty in some of the most deprived communities.

Board of trustees

Temi Odurinde

Trustee

Temi has a long term interest in poverty alleviation. The idea to create a water empowerment charity first occurred to him about eighteen years ago, in Agege, Lagos, Nigeria when he bought “ice water” from a seven year old vendor he thought should be at School, not hawking water in the streets.
