EWB-Detroit is a group of like-minded individuals who are committed to making our community and the world a better place.

Our Mission

We build a better world through engineering projects that empower communities to meet their basic human needs and equip leaders to solve the world’s most pressing challenges. 

Our Vision

A world in which every community has the capacity to sustainably meet their basic human needs.

Why We Do What We Do...

Clean Water

More than 600 million people do not have access to an improved water source.

Preventing Disease

Water, sanitation, and hygiene has the potential to prevent at least 9% of the global disease burden and 6% of all deaths. 

Adequate Sanitation

More than 1.8 billion people lack access to improved sanitation (nearly 25% of the world’s population). 

Cost Effective

Water and sanitation interventions are cost effective across all world regions. 

The Detroit Professional Chapter of Engineers Without Borders is a group of dynamic and hard-working professionals from around Metro Detroit committed to helping communities in our region and around the world attain a better quality of life. We are a chapter of Engineers Without Borders-USA, a non-profit organization with over 14,100 members and 300 chapters across the country.
