“International community program (icp) collaborates on more than 319 projects in 27 countries. These projects are driven by 228 chapters across the united states partnering directly with communities to meet their self- identified needs. Technical assistance is focused on six project types: water, civil works, sanitation, agriculture, energy and structures. Ewb- usas commitment to our hundreds of partnering communities is founded upon the premise that community-driven projects result in long-lasting and sustainable infrastructure solutions. Throughout this partnership, we bring together volunteers and community members of all backgrounds and experience levels to promote educational and leadership opportunities not typically provided in traditional academic settings. Ewb-usas volunteer base of 10,000 worked with 286 communities on 319 active projects and 61 completed projects in 2023. Completed projects directly impacted 172,448 community members.”

“Community engineering corps (cecorps) brings underserved communities and volunteer engineers together to advance local infrastructure solutions in the united states. Volunteers work with community associations, nonprofits and municipalities in both rural and urban areas. These individuals volunteer their time and expertise to assist communities that do not have the resources to access engineering services. With a strong commitment to community-driven projects, volunteers work alongside community members to design solutions to identified problems. During 2023, over 470 volunteers worked on more than 60 active projects impacting communities in 24 u.s. States and territories.”

“Volunteer engagement team (vet) supports 10,000 volunteers in 228 chapters. Vet utilizes the skills and experience of a diverse pool of student and professional volunteers to implement engineering projects and consulting services. Our highly skilled volunteers work with communities to find appropriate solutions for their infrastructure needs. During 2023, ewb-usa held its first in-person national conference since 2019, featuring a multitude of workshops, panel discussions, and keynote speakers on a wide range of topics related to engineering for global development. The conference was attended by 400+ student and professional volunteers and country partners and offices, providing opportunities for networking and collaboration with other volunteers, corporate and country partners, and learning opportunities from experts from the field.”
