Empowering change with PMWB
Founded in 2014, Project Managers Without Borders (PMWB) connects project professionals with nonprofits and NGOs worldwide. We provide sustainable project management processes, tools, and solutions aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
PMWB helps nonprofit and NGO partners improve efficiency, align strategic goals, and manage resources effectively. We turn big ideas into meaningful, measurable outcomes.
Let’s make a difference—together
PMWB empowers nonprofit organizations with Project Professionals who bring clarity, coordination, and capacity where it's needed most. Through partnerships with our local chapters and skill-based volunteers, your organization can grow from conception to execution.
PMWB partners with organizations that meet the following criteria:
- Nonprofit or non-government organization
- Support PMI’s for-purpose mission and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals
Our volunteers apply their expertise and knowledge to:
- Directly/indirectly implementing projects
- Support planned projects (rather than disaster or emergency relief)
- Deliver project management tools and techniques and mentorship
