Water Project in Los Sanchez, Honduras

Hello EWB-UT Community!

Here is a quick update on the progress of our water-distribution system in Los Sanchez, Honduras.

EWB-UT has just completed the first trip of the implementation phase in January 2009 and is currently raising funds for the completion of the project.

CURRENT STUDENTS:

We need your help!  All majors are needed to fundraise and actively participate in the logistics and design in order to complete the water project.

Weekly meetings are held in the lobby of Nitschke Hall on Tuesday at 6 PM.  Just show up or email ewb.utoledo@gmail for information on how you can help.
