We are the emerging leaders on your campus, in your office, within your community, your neighbor, your son or daughter, YOU!
EMERGING LEADERSWe have over 250 chapters including university chapters on over 180 campuses throughout the United States.

HOW WE WORKOur chapters make a five year commitment to a community.
EWB-USA carries out small-scale infrastructure projects, initiated by the community in need, within an overall community framework.
Our projects are socio-culturally appropriate and community owned to ensure long-term sustainability.
EWB-USA programs are full partnerships with a host community and one or more local NGOs. These partnerships are the basis of a long-term relationship to assure the community’s needs are sustainably met.
