Bringing our passion for water to people around the globe

Clean drinking water and reliable sanitation are basic necessities many of us take for granted. However, 1 in 4 people are without access to safe water, and 1 in 2 people lack access to improved sanitation. That’s why Carollo has been supporting Water For People through our workplace giving program since 2006.

Water for Everyone Forever

Water For People is an international nonprofit with a goal to bring safe, reliable water, sanitation, and hygiene services to everyone, and to make sure those solutions last forever.

Impact Tours

Carollo sponsors one employee annually to travel on an Impact Tour to spend a week observing Water For People’s work first-hand in one of its nine target countries — Guatemala, Honduras, Peru, Bolivia, Uganda, Rwanda, Malawi, Tanzania, and India. Impact tours demonstrate how Water For People’s approach to sustainability is strengthening communities and bringing prosperity in the districts where they work.

“While I enjoyed seeing the facilities that Water For People has helped to build in Rwanda, my favorite part was meeting the people who are directly impacted by Water For People’s mission. The joy and pride that I witnessed in these people for even the most basic facilities was inspiring.” – Jennifer Ivey (Impact Tour Participant, Rwanda, September, 2019)

“Overall, my main takeaway from the Water For People work in Peru is that it’s a much different approach from what we as engineers typically picture for ‘water development work’. We tend to consider technical approach, design, construction. Water For People’s approach in Peru puts a much greater emphasis on education, working with government agencies, and helping foster local efforts to provide water,” – Andrew Devries (Impact Tour Participant, Peru, September 2018)

“In Guatemala, rural landowners often don’t have bathroom facilities, running water, or good practices for handwashing, including soap. In response, Water For People is teaming with local governments and other organizations to help rural communities implement water delivery and sanitation projects.” – Matthew Gribbins (Impact Tour Participant, Guatemala, February 2020)

“The Water For People India Impact tour was an eye-opening experience, and a wonderful way to see, first-hand, the water pumps and sanitation systems that Water For People implements in communities that have a strong need for that infrastructure.” – Kevin Wolff (Impact Tour Participant, India, November 2017)

“I was impressed with Water For People’s tireless commitment to supporting the non-technical elements and the community change that are necessary for long-term sustainability of water and sanitation infrastructure.” – Elisa Garvey (Impact Tour Participant, India, November 2022)

“Instead of simply gifting a water or sanitary system, Water For People empowers communities to take ownership of their own water future and provides critical guidance and allies through each step of the process.” – Nicole Williams (Impact Tour Participant, India, November 2022)

“Water For People’s Honduran beneficiaries are genuinely grateful to Water For People and its supporters: I wish I could effectively convey to all Water For People donors the heart-felt gratitude that they conveyed to us. They truly appreciate and do not take for granted our generosity.” – Alan Domonoske (Impact Tour Participant, Honduras, April 2023)

“Reading and watching YouTube can expose you to a lot of things and provides endless learning opportunities, however, nothing compares to seeing the work of Water For People up close and meeting the beneficiaries and the people who work hard every day towards the goal of water for everyone, forever.” – Kathleen Kharkar (Impact Tour Participant, Bolivia, April 2024)
