Project Evaluation

Posted by lukep under Current News
Wednesday, October 15th, 2008

We are evaluating projects and communities to work with.  We have looked at open projects with EWB-USA and through our own membership connections.  Chapelton, Jamaica is the only current project/community still being considered.  The project is a water supply/pressure issue that the community is having due to being at the end of the water supply chain and due to the water supply being inconsistent in operations.  Several fresh water springs exist in the community and we would design and install a method for the community to utilize its own water source without having to rely on an inconsistent system.  We are in the process of deciding whether to submit the paperwork to EWB-USA for the Chapelton project.  This project was brought to us by the Fergus Simpson Foundation (FSF), whose purpose is to provide Chapelton with economic, education, and leadership development.  The FSF would serve as the conduit for communicating and connecting with the Chapelton community.  More information about the FSF can be found at www.fsfjamaica.org.
