Gary White: Water.org and WaterEquity Cofounder and CEO

In many parts of the world, families are paying upwards of 25% of their income to procure water and sanitation.

This is a problem that disproportionally impacts women and girls.

Microloans are a much more scalable solution to solving the water crisis than grants.

99% of all microloans Water.org provides get paid back in full and on time.

To solve the global water crisis, 750 million people will need access to water and 1.7 billion will need access to sanitation.

Matt Damon taught Gary how to be a more effective storyteller.

“Excellence is doing the very best that you’re capable of doing and always striving to do better with what you have.”
