Empowering communities around the world with safe, sustainable water access through technical excellence.
About HydroPhilanthropy
Founded by philanthropist and drilling expert, Michael Montgomery, HydroPhilanthropy exists to provide sustainable safe water access through training, consulting, and drilling partnerships with NGOs and organizations serving communities in need. We believe in “teaching a man to fish”, creating a world where communities and professionals are equipped to deliver safe water with technical excellence and industry best practices.
Training
At HydroPhilanthropy, we believe lasting impact starts with knowledge. Through our hands-on apprenticeship program and strategic partnerships with NGOs, we provide vital training in well drilling best practices. By equipping both future water professionals and local community members with the skills they need, we help ensure safe, sustainable water access for generations to come.
Consulting
HydroPhilanthropy, in partnership with the experienced drilling professionals at HydroLOGICA, offers free or low-cost consulting services to communities and organizations working toward safe water access. From hydrogeological surveys to pump installation and supply chain management, our experts provide support across every stage of the drilling process—ensuring long-term, effective solutions tailored to local needs.
Advocacy
At HydroPhilanthropy, we advocate for the development of global standards in water well drilling—because every community deserves water that’s safe and sustainable. We believe water is the foundation of life, and its provision must be grounded in technical excellence, continuous knowledge sharing, and access to clear, reliable information. Through our advocacy, we champion high standards that help ensure safe water keeps flowing for generations to come.
