Tetra Tech, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTEK) announced today the recipients
of its 50th Anniversary Global Clean Water Fund grants. In honor of
Tetra Tech’s 50 years of leadership in the water sector, Tetra Tech
established a fund, in partnership with Engineers Without Borders
(EWB), to support programs that provide clean water for communities
in need around the world.
“Tetra Tech created this Global Clean Water Fund to commemorate
its 50th Anniversary, building on its legacy of leading with
science,” said Dan Batrack, Tetra Tech Chairman and CEO. “We were
very impressed with the quality of applications and the dedication
of the project teams to identify innovative approaches to solving
community water challenges.”
Tetra Tech reviewed dozens of submissions for water-related
projects from 10 countries around the world, and selected six
projects to fund based on the application criteria. Each winning
project will meet an identified need of the local community,
involve community members in the project, and ensure long-term
sustainability of the project and associated technology.
The grants will help bring clean, safe water to communities in
poor and underserved villages and towns in remote areas of
Cameroon, Malawi, and Mexico as well as children’s shelters in
schools in Brazil, India, and Timor Leste. Projects include
infrastructure such as cased water wells and rainwater harvesting,
filtration systems, and training programs. Dedicated teams from EWB
organizations in Cameroon, Canada, United Kingdom, Brazil, India,
and Australia will lead the projects in conjunction with local
community members and organizations.
Tetra Tech will publish updates about the progress of these
projects throughout the coming year at tetratech.com/ewb.
