Transporting water to Madagascar would be a wasteful solution. It would be more cost-effective to build a treatment plant on the spot. A reverse osmosis system for a village well could be installed for as little as $5000. I know an HVAC technician who installed one on his property. The main technical obstacle in poor countries would be getting electricity to run it. You'd have to supply solar panels, wind turbines, or whatever type of generator would be best suited to the locale. For example, this open source DIY generator could use the water itself to run the generator.
Selfish charity operators are only part of a much larger geopolitical problem. Western countries, particularly the U.S., spend billions on covert operations to destabilize poor countries to make them amenable to corporations that exploit the resources of those countries. The reason Fidel Castro came to power was because wealthy Americans were using Cuba as their own millionaire playground, essentially making the Cuban people servants in their own country. Most civil wars and revolutions in Central America since the end of WWII have been instigated by the CIA to set up puppet governments that will sell their people out -- for example, by murdering peasant farmers and selling their land to American coffee and fruit companies. Those charities that depend on private donations to help the poor are working against very rich and powerful interests who want it all for themselves. Even if they're honest and have good intentions, the system is rigged against them.
That's still not enough for them. At some point, the oligarchs decided that the Western countries themselves were fair game for the same kind of exploitation. The corporate globalists are now trying to destabilize America and European nations, undermine their national sovereignty, and impoverish and disempower their people in order to set up a global authoritarian system of governance that's more akin to a corporate HR department than a democratically elected, representative government. For those who have never been the target of an HR department's wrath, I can attest that the experience is identical to being a dissident in a communist dictatorship. There is no presumption of innocence, right to legal counsel, right to confront your accuser, opportunity to refute the "evidence," or any of the other rights afforded a citizen of a constitutional republic. Guilt and punishment are decided before you're ever hauled into the HR office. An anonymous accuser can say anything they want about you, and you're screwed. In my opinion, that makes HR more dangerous than the innocuous do-nothing, make-work department they appear to be. It basically gives "little Hitlers" absolute power over your fate.
