We connect the dots between the problem, the solution and the funding needed for clean water resources.
Solutions Driven by Science​
​
Our leaders are accomplished professionals – PhDs, Professional Engineers (PEs), patent holders, and scientific journal authors. We bridge the gap between complex water problems and world-class technical knowledge, providing a quick, thorough, and free assessment of each community's needs. We review every situation from scientific, engineering, and economic perspectives to ensure the most cost-effective and practical approach. To ensure success, we work with partners who specialize in water policy, finance, and regulation, allowing us to focus on what we do best – solve water quality problems.​​​​​​​
At Clean Water Help, our mission is to connect communities in need with life-changing clean water solutions. Our model is built on a foundation of technical expertise, practical problem-solving, and a dedication to real-world impact.
Our Model: Expertise, Efficiency, and Empowerment
We've designed a unique approach that maximizes impact by focusing on what truly matters: results
A Diverse, Systems-Thinking Approach
A Diverse, Systems-Thinking Approach
We solve complex problems by looking at the big picture. Using principles from conventional water treatment, ecological engineering, sustainable aquaculture, and more, we analyze the root of the issue, not just the symptoms. The diverse backgrounds of our team and partners allow us to find the best combination of solutions, creating smart, sustainable systems that are built to last for generations.
Budget and Timeline Conscious
Budget and Timeline Conscious
A 50% improvement that can be implemented quickly and cost-effectively is better than a 90% improvement that costs millions and takes decades. We prioritize rapid, noticeable impacts that communities can build upon over time.
We never let perfect get in the way of progress!
Empowering Local Communities

We believe in building local capacity. Whenever possible, we ensure that projects are carried out by local companies and workers.
