About IWSH

IWSH is the public charity of IAPMO, a global team of experts engaging industry and government for a safer built environment. ​We mobilize the plumbing industry to help provide clean drinking water, safe sanitation, and new career pathways to underserved low-income and indigenous communities.

What IWSH Does

• We undertake a range of demonstration projects each year, showcasing plumbing upgrades and repairs, wastewater solutions, workforce development, and alternative water supplies. ​

• We recruit and deploy skilled plumbing volunteers to install quality products and provide basic instruction to make these plumbing solutions sustainable. ​

• We provide entry-level plumbing education for students and local residents, exposing them to career possibilities as skilled tradespeople. ​

• We partner with other like-minded nonprofits, plumbing manufacturers, water technology companies, and community leaders to collaborate and educate on how to scale projects in other communities. ​ 

Through strategic demonstration projects, we prove that skilled plumbers + quality products + community education = scalable, measurable impact. Our approach doesn't just solve immediate problems. It creates replicable blueprints that can be adapted and scaled in global communities.

100% of donor contributions go directly to project delivery. No overhead, just measurable results.
