INLAND EMPIRE Professional EWB Chapter
The IE-EWB chapter is comprised of professionals possessing a wide variety of backgrounds and experience levels. Though differing in our expertise, we all share the same desire to use our skills to bring the most basic of human necessities to those in need.
Through the foundation provided by EWB-USA we have been able to organize our efforts and join with others who have the same interest. Together with the student chapters of Cal Poly Pomona and the University of California Riverside we are working towards making our first project a reality.
Our current project focuses on designing a water supply system to bring a safe and reliable source of water to the citizens of San Lorenzo El Tejar, Guatemala.
UPCOMING SPECIAL FUNDRAISING EVENT:
As Americans there would be few things more startling then to turn on a faucet and have nothing come out. How would you react if there was no water district customer service line or plumber to call for help? Would you be scared
…For the people of San Lorenzo El Tejar this is reality…though one we would like to change!
Come join us at the University of California Riverside for a fun 5K run/walk with a kid's 1K race!! Prizes and Medals for top finishers in over 10 age groups!!
