Engineers Without Borders Request for Help

3 Comments / Uncategorized /

RPCV Suzanne Mills sent us this request for help with a water project in Cotopaxi. Spread the world and contact Suzanne if you can help.

Hello Ecuador PCVs and RPCVs!
I am a hydrogeologist with Engineers Without Borders (EWB) currently seeking support for small business development related to a recently constructed drinking water project in the village of Tingo Pucara, Cotopaxi Province. The project is an extensive pumped system that provides high quality water that is more than enough to supply the village for current and future needs.

New PCV Fundraising Request – $3500 Audiovisual Laboratory

2 Comments / Uncategorized /

Peace Corps Partnerships fundraising appeal from PCV Catherine Heimsoth. $3500 is needed to support an audiovisual laboratory. As of July 29th, the project still needs about $3500.

The objective of our project is to implement an audiovisual laboratory that will serve the needs of our educational community by strengthening the linguistic skills of our English teachers and students. Furthermore, the laboratory will be used as a training center for the educational community with the contribution of the following groups: the committee of school authorities and teachers, the student council, the committee of students’ parents, as of course the English area. Everyone will contribute in terms of materials, labor, finances, and through in-kind donations. We believe this project will help not only the students currently in our institution but will serve future generations of students. This laboratory will help the students of our institution reach new academic levels, forming better people capable of working in a professional environment with an adequate use of the English language.
