Water For People updates, blogs and pictures

From the road, the picture of Water For People is really an examination of people. People who we serve, the people who work in our country offices, the people who help us get the job done and the people who live all around us. While I'm on the road with all these people I'll be posting updates, videos, pics, blog entries.

Blog Number One

The WHAT WORKS blog....

In traveling the world, you see many things. Some good. Some difficult to watch. Some inspiring. Some depressing. What inspires me over and over again is seeing things that work.

I’ve seen them all over in business, in non-profits, in education, in life. But when you travel and you see things that work in another country or where social causes are at work there is a special importance about learning from “what works” and translating them into further successes.
