Prior to joining Water.org, April conducted research in water, sanitation and hygiene in rural schools and urban areas in western Kenya. In this position, she melded technology and public health research by using personal digital assistants and geographic information systems in the field to investigate the relationship between behaviors, the environment, water sources, and drinking water quality.

Rich Thorsten - Director of International Programs

Rich brings over 15 years of experience in non-profit management, advocacy, research, and evaluation to Water.org. He has centered his professional life on improving the quality of life of current and future generations while safeguarding our environment and feels his experiences in different parts of the developing world has opened his eyes to the perils of those who live in absolute poverty.

Gary White - Executive Director

White has dedicated his life to helping people obtain safe and sustainable water supplies. More than a decade ago in the slums of Guatemala City, he was shocked by the sources of drinking water. These caused sickness and death, especially for children whose immune systems are weak. Knowing that 80 percent of sickness in the world is water-related motivated him to co-found Water.org.
