Meet some of our team members
David Strivings
Senior Impact Intelligence Analyst
Water.org’s impact reporting is accurate because team members like David Strivings are behind the scenes working every day to ensure our results are reported accurately and timely. A lover of all things numbers, data, and design, David brings expertise and passion to his role. Though known to be an introverted fellow, there are a few things that can get David talking: biking, running, and adventures with his beloved family.
“At Water.org I can connect my gifts with meaningful, impactful work.”
Nikita Sahgal
Global Lead, Award Operations
Nikita is caring and enthusiastic, with a passion for helping women and their families break the cycle of poverty. She draws on her experience in the water and sanitation sector, plus her work in public healthcare, to help ensure funds raised are allocated and implemented effectively into Water.org’s programs. When she’s not helping change lives with safe water, Nikta can be found in the air on a plane or on the ground behind a pottery wheel!
"My work matters because I know that somewhere down the line, I’m helping a girl or woman and their family gain some sort of independence and freedom in their life."
