In most of our projects, the local organizations doing the work matter more than we do, so we put them first.
We list our partners because they are the ones changing lives. We give them science, design and funding.
Clean Water Help rarely runs a project alone. A trusted local organization knows the community, the language, and the politics, and it leads the work. A solution provider brings proven technology or funding. Our 25+ volunteer PhDs and engineers diagnose the problem, design the solution and help raise the money, then step back as the partner grows. When a project no longer needs us, that’s success.
The local NGOs, nonprofits, governments, and universities who lead the work where it happens.
Our project ↗
A Congolese NGO working in North Kivu, a province that has lived through years of conflict, displacement and disease outbreaks. In Goma, PALPER installs and checks the shared household filters and trains the families who use them. PALPER also manages our scholarship students locally.
Our project ↗
A Cambodian children’s organization based in Kampot. With funding from YourAid, KCCO has installed drinking-water systems at more than 300 rural schools since 2020 and maintains them. We support the program with source water protection, pathogen testing of the finished water and an independent audit.
Our project ↗
A Sydney-based Australian charity that funds and oversees its in-country partner KCCO. YourAid runs dental, education, and water programs across rural Cambodia, including clean drinking water for rural schools.
Our project ↗
Working in Siem Reap since 2004, Trailblazer builds and installs household biosand filters and wells. Families contribute a small amount to a village fund, and Trailblazer trains them to use and maintain each filter.
Our project ↗
A Ghanaian foundation restoring forests, water bodies, and livelihoods damaged by galamsey, small-scale gold mining that is often unregulated. Based in Kumasi, they lead the project with the districts and communities in the Ashanti Region.
Our project ↗
Gospel of Life, Disciples & Dwellings is building Morada Apla’s, a free end-of-life hospice in Cerro de Oro. GOLD leads construction, permits and operations; we are their on-call technical advisor for water.
Our project ↗
A nonprofit that teaches mercury-free gold mining. Its gravity methods (sluicing and panning) helped convert more than 500 Philippine mines away from mercury. AppelGlobal is our partner on the Baguio cyanide-free pilot and on training legitimate small-scale miners in Ghana.
Our project ↗
A nonprofit that works on anticipatory action (acting before a disaster strikes). GCDRP was an early partner in the planning that led to our free app, which estimates where drinking water will run short after a typhoon or earthquake.
Companies that donate the technology, software, or expertise that turns a plan into clean water.
Our project ↗
A Malaysian water-treatment firm that designs and builds turnkey ultrafiltration systems for rural Cambodian schools at about $700 each. About 60 new systems a year go into schools through YourAid and KCCO.
Our project ↗
An environmental engineering firm that donates expertise in kind, including a trip to Guatemala to assess the hospice site in person and help design its water system at no cost.

Six reasons to direct a CSR budget, a grant or a product to Clean Water Help.
Our founders pay every operating cost, so 100% of contributions go to the project you choose. And because we work through local partners, your money builds on staff and community trust they already have.
25+ volunteer PhDs and professional engineers diagnose, design, and document every project. That record is the technical proof that funders and ESG reports require.
Named project sponsorship comes with project photos (when partners can share them) and a short impact summary that your team and customers can see and share.
