Mission: to engage the citizens of Carroll County in taking responsibility for improving our community environment.

Watsan Action is a U.S. based organization founded to support this cause, which evolved into establishing an Indonesian-based organization, Yayasan Tirta Lestari. By working in partnership, Watsan Action serves as an umbrella organization advising the operational arm, Yayasan Rirta Lestari, which together with donor support enables a dynamic foundation to address water & sanitation issues. Watsan Action’s mission is to strategically advise on appropriate technologies and approaches, financial sustainability, and streamline communications to improve water & sanitation conditions through the activities of Yayasan Rirta Lestari.

Seva Mandir's mission is to make real the idea of society consisting of free and equal citizens who are able to come together and solve the problems that affect them in their particular contexts. The commitment is to work for a paradigm of development and governance that is democratic and polyarchic. Seva Mandir seeks to institutionalise the idea that development and governance is not only to be left to the State and its formal bodies like the legislature and the bureaucracy, but that citizens and their associations should engage separately and jointly with the State. The mission briefly, is to construct the conditions in which citizens of plural backgrounds and perspectives can come together and deliberate on how they can work to benefit and empower the least advantaged in society.
