We appreciate the approximately 100 generous guests who turned out June 22 for our networking and fundraising reception: Designing a Better World—An Evening of Art and Engineering.

Thanks to donations from attendees and others, we surpassed our goal for the event! Donors’ names have been added to the Thank You page of this website, and photos are posted on our ​​Photo Gallery page.
 
One hundred percent of proceeds from the event will go toward our newest project, below.

Current Project

Our chapter is now working with a second community in Guatemala to help them also design and build a new school. The Vista Hermosa Las Flores area is home to approximately 74 Maya families. Their children currently are taught in an open-walled shelter that serves as a school, ​shown below. We are continuing to monitor and assist Las Victorias with maintenance of their school and kitchen while helping another deserving community realize their vision for a better future.

Past Projects

Las Victorias, Guatemala: families of this mountainous village partnered with our chapter to build a new primary school to lift their children and future generations out of poverty. Also shown above and on our Projects page.

​San Pedro Puxtla, El Salvador: this main street connects families to school, shopping, and healthcare. Formerly a steep and rocky gulley, residents now have a durable thoroughfare with adequate drainage for the wet season. See our Projects page for more information.
