Plover International

Turning empathy into action.

Our Mission

At Plover International, we are an international student-led nonprofit where we believe empathy should inspire action. Our youth-driven initiative transforms concern into tangible support by addressing a fundamental need: access to hygiene. Through our global chapters, we provide essential hygiene products to underserved communities worldwide, showing that young people can make a real difference for those who need it most.

International Chapters

Plover International draws its name from the small plover birds known for cleaning the teeth of alligators and crocodiles. This unique relationship symbolizes the nonprofit’s mission: just as plovers help maintain the hygiene of these reptiles, Plover International supports underserved communities by providing essential hygiene access. Working through student-led global chapters, we all become plovers within serving our own communities.
