About Us

Welcome to Plumbers Without Borders!

We are a grass-roots, volunteer-driven organization, started by plumbers, for plumbers and our industry’s capacity to improve lives and global health. Following the devastating 2010 earthquake in Haiti, we were inspired by the generosity of plumbers everywhere to share their time and skills towards helping people suffering from the lack of safe water and sanitation.

We are a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization.

Our mission:

To increase access to safe water and sanitation by mobilizing and connecting volunteer plumbers and industry resources with organizations and projects dedicated to improving health in all communities worldwide.

Safe water and sanitation are basic human rights.

PWB is building an online network of volunteers, organizations and projects, to provide a platform and “giving infrastructure” for our industry, and everyone concerned with increasing access to safe water and sanitation. We believe our work will move the world closer to reaching the ultimate goal of improving health in all communities, worldwide.

Our Vision:

Our vision is a world where everyone has access to safe water and sanitation – where senseless suffering and disease is eradicated by the implementation of appropriate plumbing and sanitary systems.

Training and education, in the prevention of water-borne diseases, and the implementation of safe and sustainable sanitary systems is critical to building and improving local capacity in all communities, whether developed or developing.

All building trades and related services and products are welcome and needed.
