EWB-USA is a non-profit organization helping developing communities build sustainable infrastructure, while helping college engineering students become more socially responsible and culturally aware. EWB-USA partners with developing communities to deliver sustainable engineering programs that meet critical community needs. At the same time, EWB-USA provides an educational platform on which to educate a new generation of students about the important environmental, economic and social issues facing the world.

"EWB-USA is unique in that teams of university students, along with their professors and professional engineers, are working hand in hand with developing communities to address critical needs,” said Cathy Leslie, executive director of EWB-USA. “We’re thrilled to provide students with the opportunity to apply what they’ve learned in class while working with other professionals and the local communities to make the world a better place.”
