Commitment to Vikas Mission.org

As I considered my next professional position, a key selection factor was that I'd have the opportunity to align my personal values, and leverage my experience in support of a mission that supports humankind. I was drawn to Water.org because of its core mission to transform lives with safe water and sanitation solutions and because of the impact on women, girls, and their communities. I am humbled and inspired by those we serve, and look forward to participating in realizing the vision to ensure everyone has access to safe water and sanitation.
