Changes

Texas A&M's EWB-TAMU chapter won the EWB-USAs "Premier Chapter" recognition for going above and beyond the mission of EWB. A&M students have visited Costa Rica multiple times to gather information about community needs. Then came back to assess and design solutions for those needs, then went back to implement and fulfill their design solutions. Since 2010 A&M has built a computer education center for students, and made their water supply drinkable while providing 100 households with access to water.

Not only do they have a strong student involvement, but also of many professional engineers within the state of Maine. They are working on a portable water project for the village of Dorgobom, Ghana to make it more accessible and safer to drink. EWB-UMaine has been quite creative in funding this project. They hold many raffles, bi-annual yard sales, bowling events, and even a beer and wine tasting. Perhaps their most innovative fundraiser is making jewelry from Ghanaian beads so that students are able to get a closer picture of where the time and support is going.
