LEADERSHIP
At Living Water International, leadership begins with service.
For more than 35 years, we have worked alongside local churches, community leaders, and technical experts to bring lasting access to safe water, improved sanitation, and renewed hope. Our leadership team stewards this mission with integrity, accountability, and humility—so communities are equipped to thrive long after a project is complete.
Guided by faith and shaped by partnership, we lead with a long-term vision of solutions that last and lives transformed through safe water and Living Water.
