Community Impact
Clean Water…
for Everyone
At IDG, our commitment to clean water goes beyond our client work. Our team actively gives time, talent, and leadership to organizations expanding access to safe water around the world.
Why It Matters
IDG is committed to providing clean water solutions for communities across the globe.
Water is at the center of everything we do professionally. It's also one of the most urgent global challenges of our time. We believe that proximity to this problem carries a responsibility to act on it.
That conviction shapes how our people spend their time outside the office, which organizations they lead, and how IDG shows up in the professional communities we're part of.

Our Initiatives
How We Give Back
From remote Mayan villages in Central America to dozens of communities across rural Africa and beyond, our team is invested in helping developing communities with clean water issues. A few of our clean water partners and our work with them are highlighted below:
The Living Water Project
Bringing Clean Water to Developing Communities Worldwide
IDG Senior Project Manager Kevin Colvett serves on the Board of Directors for The Living Water Project, a non-profit dedicated to expanding access to safe water in developing countries. Kevin has spent much of his personal time traveling the world to help communities meet their most basic water and wastewater needs.
Most recently, Kevin joined a delegation in Guatemala alongside partners from Garney Construction, working to design and build clean water systems for remote villages where access to safe water remains an ongoing challenge.

AguaClara Reach
Low-Tech Water Treatment for Remote Villages
AguaClara Reach is a non-profit that develops and deploys low-cost water treatment technology for remote communities in developing countries. Their gravity-powered systems require no electricity and minimal maintenance, making them a sustainable fit for villages where conventional infrastructure isn't an option.

Peugeot Center for Engineering Services in Developing Communities
Bringing Clean Water to the World’s Most Remote Communities
IDG's Kevin Colvett, Levi Branan, Cole Scott, and Barney Fullington have all partnered with Lipscomb University's Peugeot Center for Engineering Service in Developing Communities, helping bring clean water infrastructure to remote villages in Guatemala. Most recently, IDG joined forces with Garney Construction and Guatemalan non-profit ADICAY to design and install water distribution systems for the mountain villages of Los Limones and Marichaj, communities that previously had no consistent access to safe water.
IDG team members have participated directly in Peugeot Center service trips, taking the skills they use every day and putting them to work where they're needed most.
