December 04, 2019

To all of our generous donors and supporters - thank you so much for your contributions to our successful crowdfunding campaign! We are so excited to put your donations to good use this summer in Tanzania. Keep an eye out for updates in the coming months about our progress!

Thank you from EWB!

We are excited to share that in just 21 days, supporters like you have helped us raise $19,145, 76% of our $25,000 goal. Thanks to donations from people like you, we are one step closer to achieving our goal of providing Sunuka, Tanzania with consistent access to water for their crops.  We are so appreciative of your donation - every gift counts! 

 

We are currently halfway through the crowdfunding campaign, with two weeks left to raise $5,855. All funds will help our team cover the costs for our implementation trip to Sunuka from June-August over summer 2020, including solar panel maintenance, pipe costs, storage tanks, and more; the progress will be documented online through social media. 

 

Again, thank you for the support!

 

 

 

 

 

We're Making Progress!

We have some great news!

 

In our first week of crowdfunding, we have raised $15,430 with the help of 85 donors! We are so grateful for your donation - every gift goes towards the construction of a water irrigation system in Sunuka, Tanzania.

 

Because we surpassed our initial goal of $15,000 so quickly, we have increased our crowdfunding goal to $25,000 for the remaining three weeks of the campaign. This project is incredibly important to our entire team. We care deeply about using our engineering knowledge to provide sustainable solutions to global issues and hope to see this water irrigation system to completion. Of course, none of this would be possible without the generosity of people like you.

 

 Every gift counts - thank you sincerely for your support!
