Moneyboxx, Water.org Join Hands to Boost Water & Sanitation Financing

Moneyboxx Finance, a BSE-listed NBFC focused on expanding credit access for micro and small enterprises, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Water.org, a global nonprofit dedicated to expanding access to safe water and sanitation.

The partnership aims to strengthen financial inclusion in the Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) sector by designing and scaling affordable financing solutions for micro and small businesses serving low-income communities.

Under the agreement, Water.org will provide technical assistance to Moneyboxx Finance in product design, market assessment, staff training, and monitoring of water and sanitation lending. This will help Moneyboxx expand its product portfolio and mobilize capital for WASH-focused enterprises.

Deepak Aggarwal, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Moneyboxx Finance, said, “Our partnership with Water.org represents a meaningful step toward transforming lives in underserved regions. Through microbusiness loans for water and sanitation, we aim to empower communities, improve health, and create lasting opportunities for growth. Together, we are not just financing businesses — we are transforming lives and building a foundation for sustainable growth.”

For Water.org, access to safe water and sanitation is fundamental to health, dignity, and opportunity. Partnering with Moneyboxx enables scaling of solutions that directly impact rural entrepreneurs and low-income communities in India.

The initiative comes at a critical time, as India’s WASH-MSME sector includes over 200,000 enterprises with an estimated annual debt demand of INR 20,000 crores, of which less than 16% is currently met by formal financing. By bridging this credit gap, the partnership aims to unlock new opportunities for microbusinesses and communities at the base of the pyramid.
