Partnership FAQs

We're a Texas-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2017 by Jacob Niemeier, P.E., a licensed water resources engineer. We design, build, and hand off community-managed, sustainable clean water systems to rural communities in the Piura region of Peru.
We have four partnership categories, and we'll shape the structure around what fits your business:
- Financial (project funding, operating support, event sponsorship)
- In-kind (construction materials, solar and power components, refrigeration components for the condenser, logistics/freight)
- Technical/pro bono (engineering hours, design review, testing)
- Employee engagement (volunteer teams, mission trips, matching gifts, workplace presentations)
If what you can offer doesn't fit neatly into one of these, tell us anyway — some of our best partnerships started as something we hadn't categorized yet!
Vera Aqua Vera Vita pairs mission-driven community work with real engineering, so your investment supports infrastructure that is measurable, technically sound, and built to last, not short-term relief. Every project includes assessment, community-driven design, construction, WASH training, legal water rights, and formal handoff to community ownership and operation. Our designs are build-ready, with documented blueprints, cost analyses, and locally sourceable construction plans that are practical for rural deployment. And we measure outcomes after the fact: in Monte Castillo, we documented that chronic water-related illness fell from 84% to 13% of residents.
Partnering with VAVV enhances your organization's corporate social responsibility profile, offers opportunities to engage your community through volunteerism, and allows you to make a tangible impact on global water issues!
We report on our own timeline whether or not a partner is watching: monthly project status updates, a quarterly partner impact summary, and a full annual report covering people served, outcomes measured, and financials. Partner-specific reporting on funded projects is part of every agreement.
