WHO WE ARE
We are a group of professionals in New Hampshire, from various backgrounds, volunteering together to empower communities to achieve clean and sustainable water supplies.
We are a Professional Chapter of Engineers Without Borders USA, which is a non-profit humanitarian organization that partners with local communities to design and build sustainable engineering projects (water supply, water treatment, construction, sanitation, energy, agriculture, etc.).

We meet often as a chapter! For our upcoming meetings, check out our Events Page!
CURRENT PROJECT
Water Supply in Gwase, Uganda
EWB USA - NH Professional Chapter is partnered with the Busoga Volunteers for Community Development (BuVoCoD) in a multi-year water supply project in the Bugaya Sub-County of the Buyende District of Uganda.
Our partnership began in 2016 with the goal of providing clean, sustainable water sources to nine villages. So far we have successfully installed eight deep water supply wells. Due to necessary precautions related to COVID-19, our chapter conducted "remote implementation" for three of those wells. We were not on the ground monitoring progress, but did so through remote partners. We continue to work with BuVoCOD and hope to install water supply systems in two additional villages in the near future.
We emphasize solutions that communities can self-sustain and aim to provide initial resources and engineering support to empower development of durable, clean, and productive water supply infrastructure.
