Engineers Without Borders USA Lehigh Valley Professional Chapter builds a better world through engineering projects that empower communities to meet their basic human needs. Our highly skilled volunteers work with communities to find appropriate solutions for their infrastructure needs.
We currently have two ongoing projects, one being a water distribution system in the Dominican Republic, and a hospital project in Mattru Jong, Sierra Leone. We have a long relationship with the people of Mattru Jong, Sierra Leone, which began in 2010. Our first project there was to renovate the local school which had been damaged in the long civil war.

We just can't do what we do without the assistance of those that want to join with us and make a difference in the world.
Our chapter holds regular meetings and events such as our annual auction that helps us fund the work we do.
