A purpose-driven organization
Engineering a
better world
The Portland Chapter
We are a 100% volunteer led chapter!
Our chapter of EWB-USA is a group of professionals committed to volunteering and supporting the EWB-USA mission and vision. Our volunteers include architects, engineers, public health professionals, medical professionals, media specialists, teachers and more.
Our Mission: we build a better world through engineering projects that empower communities to meet their basic human needs and equip leaders to solve the world’s most pressing challenges.
Our Vision: a world in which every community has the capacity to sustainably meet their basic human needs.
Together we can make the world a better place, one community at a time.
We believe that communities are the key to positive change.
Communities are at the heart of the EWB approach to development. We believe that our expertise can only be used when we’ve establish real partnership with the communities that we’re working with. We work together to identify and implement appropriate solutions that bring lasting, positive change.
For our organization sustainability isn’t a goal, it is the way we approach the work.
