EWB National Conference in Milwaukee

October 09, 2017

First, a huge thank you to everyone who has donated towards our campaign so far! Last night, nine members of our team got back to Blacksburg after a great weekend at the EWB National conference in Milwaukee, WI. Our team had the opportunity to network with student chapters, professional chapters, and companies. We also presented posters on our projects in Guatemala and Uganda. We are thankful for the opportunity to have gone to this conference and your donation could help us afford to attend similar events in the future!
