WE LEAD INTERNATIONAL CLEAN WATER AND HEALTH MISSIONS

Because lack of clean water anywhere makes the world less safe everywhere.

“Water crisis” is a term used to describe situations in which there is not enough safe, unpolluted water within a region to meet that region’s demand. In these situations, people are forced to walk tremendous distances to find safe water or to consume water that is untreated and unsanitary.

FACT

2.2 billion still live without safely managed drinking water, including 115 million people who drink surface water. (WHO/UNICEF, 2023)

Water Crisis

The World Economic Forum counts the world water crisis as one of top 5 global risks, ranking higher than 27 other risks in terms of likelihood and impact. Why is this so important? Because access to clean water is consistently at the root of other global risks like conflict and migration – which affects us ALL.

Our Veteran Volunteers

Not just Veterans, but Veterans that have served in the branch of the military responsible for conducting foreign humanitarian aid operations. In the aftermath of war and natural disasters, CA teams coordinate with local aid organizations, provide direct aid to civilians, and help restore infrastructure by building roads, schools, medical facilities, sewer lines, etc.

Veterans Without Orders is uniquely-qualified to solve clean water issues.

Combatting The Water Crisis

Our volunteers have seen first-hand the devastating effects of the water crisis, and we’ve spent our careers developing solutions for these regions. As Veterans, our goal is to serve as the “tip of the spear” for combatting the water crisis. We do this through on-the-ground distribution of clean water solutions, training, and follow-up support to communities across the globe.

WHEN IT COMES TO CREATING A MORE PEACEFUL WORLD, CLEAN WATER SHOULD BE SEEN AS THE FOUNDATION.

IT IS THE KEY TO GOOD HEALTH AND ESSENTIAL FOR SURVIVAL
IT ENABLES CHILDREN – ESPECIALLY GIRLS – TO STAY IN SCHOOL
IT ALLOWS PEOPLE TO WORK AND ECONOMIES TO THRIVE
IT REDUCES THE RISK OF CONFLICT AND MIGRATION

The question we ask ourselves is how we – as Veterans – can ensure a future in which water is a reason for cooperation.

Lives Can Be Transformed And Honored

THROUGH ONE SIMPLE SOLUTION

Research has shown there are 26 potentially-deadly diseases transmitted by water that simple filtration can reduce the incidence of or even prevent. Water filtration is one of the easiest to implement and most cost-effective solutions for solving the water crisis.

Veterans Without Orders Mission Model

Our mission model is simple and ensures we can make an immediate impact on communities to ensure sustainable water management. By partnering on the ground with local aid organizations, we are able to travel to communities anywhere in the world to provide filtration supplies, education, and training.
