Wisdom Spring / Walking for Water

Susan Hough is the Executive Director of Wisdom Spring, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that has a dual mission: to provide water to communities in need and to empower students through Walking for Water (W4W) social impact clubs. Additionally, Susan serves as the Director of the W4W program.

With only 37% of Gen Z reporting that their schools effectively prepare them to be active citizens and 70% ranking climate change as the most pressing social issue, the W4W clubs provide a valuable opportunity for students to contribute to meaningful change while developing leadership skills that will benefit them for a lifetime. To date, the annual student-led fundraisers have successfully funded the installation of 55 wells and counting in underserved areas of Africa and India.
