Engineers Without Borders Project Competition
Alison
Written by Jodi Gentry
Engineers Without Borders-KU is competing in a national contest to win
$20,000 with our "Wagering for Water: No Limit Texas Hold 'Em
Tournament" fundraiser!
What: The GrabLife GiveLife contest, sponsored by Dodge, is an online
competition where college students create, nominate and vote on
philanthropic events. Competition is fierce for the $20,000 grand
prize. The first event that receives $20,000 votes wins; lesser
prizes will be awarded to 2nd through 6th place as well.
Where: Online at http://www.grablifegivelife.com/contest/viewcandidate/166
When: Voting started Sunday, October 21. You can vote every day!
Why: All winning student groups donate prize money to the non-profit
organization of their choice. EWB-KU will be donating to EWB-USA,
which will in turn help us fund future humanitarian projects performed
by our chapter. We're currently in the final application stages for a
project to establish a clean, reliable and safe water supply in Puerto
de Valle, Mexico- a small community of 2,250 people.
