Our mission – a world where everyone has lasting access to safe drinking water and sanitation, for #EveryoneForever.
About us
Water For People exists to promote the development of high-quality drinking water and sanitation services, accessible to all, and sustained by strong communities, businesses, and governments. We're working to reach Everyone Forever. Water For People promotes safe and reliable water and sanitation services for every family, clinic, and school. This means every single person – even the hardest to reach, the most vulnerable, the marginalized – has access to safe water and sanitation services. It’s not enough to just reach Everyone. We want to make sure water and sanitation services are sustainable. Forever means working from the ground up and top down – empowering communities and governments so that Water For People won’t have to be around forever, but water and sanitation services will be.
