For the first eight to nine years Friendly Water for the World was an all-volunteer organization. From board direction to fundraising, administration and event management, volunteers built and continue to be the foundation of our future. They provide valuable input and crucial perspective helping to guide us on our path to potential supporters and partnerships. Perhaps most importantly, our volunteers inspire a lot of joy and humor, essential ingredients to balance the seriousness of the work we undertake. Our volunteers come from many different backgrounds, interests, and locations. They help us around the world in both our office and field operations.
