Engineers Without Borders - Minnesota

We are just one chapter of EWB-USA, an international humanitarian and development organization which consists of 300 student and professional chapters.  EWB tackles food, water, health, and housing problems in developing communities.  We develop sustainable solutions to these problems, and make long-term commitments with communities to ensure we properly address their needs.  Solutions include providing communities with the proper knowledge and skills, to become independent from non-governmental organizations (NGOs), like ours, for help.

Our chapter currently has three active projects: Guatemala Project, Honduras Project, and the Raaso Project.  They are all water distribution projects, which is our chapter's specialty.  However, we are looking to diversify into structural, waste management, and renewable energy projects.  If you have a project idea/opportunity, please contact Garrett (garrett@ewb-mn.org). 

Everyone is welcome to join us, and membership is not limited to engineers. Please check our Calendar for meetings and event information.
