Mission Statement
Swimmable, drinkable, fishable water for everyone
About This Cause
Our Impact Swim Drink Fish works at the confluence of water, people, and storytelling, using community science, technology, and communications to connect people to water. Through a network of Community Water Monitoring Hubs, Swim Drink Fish has inspired, and continues to inspire, people to know and safeguard their local waters. Swim Drink Fish initiatives are active in 171 communities in 11 countries. What We Do Our apps and programs connect communities with the water and with other people. We teach communities to monitor the health of their water. Together, we advocate for the protection and restoration of the places we love. We focus on water, because all communities need swimmable, drinkable, fishable water to thrive. We empower people, because it takes a community to protect water. Our Community We are committed to building relationships and interconnectedness with Indigenous communities through engagement and partnership. Our work endeavours to support Indigenous rights to sovereignty, self-determination, and free access to swimmable, drinkable, fishable water for everyone. Our employees and partners come from many different cultural, linguistic, and national backgrounds. Water_People_Technology-01.png Our Vision Swimmable, drinkable, fishable water for everyone As a volunteer-led group, the Swim Drink Fish vision of creating swimmable, drinkable, fishable water for everyone started with people. It’s this vision that has connected people to the water’s edge and given communities access to their local waters. Our vision has come to fruition, and continues to grow, thanks to the power of community-based action. We use the tools of a diverse group of passionate water lovers with the same goal in mind: swimmable, drinkable, fishable water for everyone. Our vision has never wavered, and that’s why the past is powering our present and the future, as we continue to look forward with people powering us there. Our Mission Connecting people with water Connection leads to protection. It reads simple, but if you go beneath the surface of that sentence, we find a solution to issues and problems we’ve known about for over a century. The simple act of connecting people to water is the greatest action we can take; it is the catalyst in empowering a community to protect its water. Our vision of creating access to swimmable, drinkable, fishable water for everyone begins and ends with connection. It’s the action of protection that becomes the journey. It is our programs that will take you on that journey of protecting what you love. We work at the confluence of people, water, and storytelling. Our programs connect people to the water’s edge, and with technology, we use communications tools to help tell the stories to empower a movement of people working to protect and create access to swimmable, drinkable, fishable water for everyone.
