STAFF + INTERNS |

charity: began with Scott and a staff of one: Lani. Since then we've multiplied exponentially with Becky, Vik, Nicky and Robin. The interns are our second half, helping with everything from design to managing volunteers to speaking at local schools and venues. |

| In 2004, Scott served a year as a photojournalist on a Mercy Ship in Liberia, West Africa. There he became familiar with the life-threatening effects of contaminated water and upon moving back to his home in New York City in 2006, he founded charity: water. Read Scott's story > | A recent graduate of Columbia University’s School of Social Work, Becky focused her Master’s degree on International Social Welfare and Social Enterprise Administration. Prior to coming to charity: water, she interned at UNICEF’s Division of Water, Environment, and Sanitation. | Nicky received her Master's degree in Psychology from NYU in 2007. She most recently worked with the New York County District Attorney's Office as a Child Victim Specialist. Her passion for international aid was sparked after spending time in Namibia and Kazakhstan. | ||||

Jenn Sande is a junior at the Gallatin School of Individualized Study at New York University, where she is studying photography, multi-media design, and philosophy. She began working with charity: water in October 2007. |
Emily grew up in Providence, Rhode Island and moved to New York in 2004 to attend New York University. She is entering her senior year at NYU and is a double major in Anthropology and African studies. |
Phillip is a mystery. All that we really know of him is that he likes bicycles, music, books, and social justice. It is believed (mostly by himself) that he can do just about anything. Judging by his performance, we're starting to agree. |
