First entry
Posted by Richard on February 20, 2009

-E-Week Booth, Friday 12-2pm, Bell Tower, "Simple Green Technologies, Designs for the Developing World."

-Soccer Ball and Jump Rope Drive. 2/9/09-3/9/09.

"This March EWB-UCR is heading down to Guatemala to gather information for the design of a water treatment and storage system we will be implementing there in the near future. For this project we are collaborating with an NGO that helps children that have been orphaned, abandoned, or are living in extreme poverty. Since we won't be taking a lot of equipment with us this time around, we would like to bring some soccer balls and jump ropes for the kids instead. So, we are having a soccer ball and jump rope drive! Please help us in blessing these kids and drop off a toy! Collection boxes will be located in the Engineering Student Affairs office."
