Mission Statement

Engineers Without Borders - USA (EWB-USA) is a non-profit humanitarian organization established to partner with developing communities worldwide in order to improve their quality of life. This partnership involves the implementation of sustainable engineering projects, while involving and training internationally responsible engineers and engineering students.

The Hartford Professionals Chapter partnership with EWB-USA was founded in November, 2006, with the following goals:

• To help disadvantaged communities throughout the world meet their basic needs through Professional Chapter projects.

• To have the Professional Members be a technical resource for students of all levels.

• To collect and provide research on sustainable technologies to create internationally responsible engineers.

• To maintain a presence in the local community through service.

This type of partnership of professional engineers, engineering students, and head office resources results in environmentally and economically sustainable projects that are compatible with the environment, society and culture of the community, and globally-minded responsible engineers.

Please contact us should you wish to join our organization and support our common vision of a world where all people have access to adequate sanitation, safe drinking water and the resources to meet their other self-identified engineering needs.
