Water For People-Canada is a charitable nonprofit international
humanitarian organization dedicated to the development and delivery of clean, safe water and sanitation solutions in developing nations. It is the Canadian equivalent of the U.S. based charity, Water For People.

A board of directors consisting of up to 13 members governs Water For People-Canada. The board includes representatives from regional water and wastewater industry associations: Reseau Environnement; Atlantic Canada Water Works Association; Ontario Water Works Association; British Columbia Section, AWWA; Western Canada Section, AWWA; Water Environment Federation Ontario; the President of the Water For People (ex-officio); Past-President of Water For PeopleúCanada (ex-officio); Treasurer of Water For People (ex-officio) and as many as five (5) additional members, either as individuals or representing organizations, whose interest in charitable activities is compatible to the objectives of Water For People-Canada.

Water For People-Canada has established committees throughout Canada mostly in conjunction with regional sections of the American Water Works Association. The committees inform members of the water industry and the general public about the work of Water For People-Canada, and through various means solicit funds to support the administrative and field work.

Since its founding in 1995, Water for People-Canada has sponsored more than 50 projects benefiting the most marginalized people, particularly women and children in Bolivia, Honduras, Guatemala, Malawi and Vietnam.

Water For People-Canada takes pride in teaching people how to address their own water issues. All project work is designed to encourage capacity-building and long term sustainability by the communities themselves.
