Come to think of it, I would add America's own:
Water for People non-profit arm of the American Water Works Association. Its one of the best groups I know. They take volunteer American water professionals and send them to build water systems to provide clean water or deal with waste water in places that need them. One of the brightest points in this light is that many of the volunteers are employees of local governments who feel a calling to use their skills to help provide clean water in places like Central and South America and Africa. They do it efficiently on very limited budgets, though the engineering community provides a decent amount of funding for just about any qualified person who wants to go. U.S.A., U.S.A., U.S.A.!
eta For anyone who has never heard this before, the unavailability of clean water is the single base cause that can be tied to the most deaths of children in the 3rd world.
