At the Xylem SA Trust, impact isn’t just about numbers—it’s about depth, dignity, and systems that hold. We measure success through a blend of hard data, human stories, and structural shifts: how many learners gained access, yes—but also whether the ground beneath them is more stable. We track progress in four core areas: Early learning sites formalised and supported Students funded and retained through higher education Youth trained and placed in technical fields Local innovations adopted and sustained But it’s not only about what we count—it’s about what we honour. We celebrate the small victories that signal real change: a child learning in a safe classroom, a student breaking through financial barriers, a community innovating from within. That’s where impact lives.
