Last Chance to RSVP for Spring Banquet

The date of our spring banquet is fast approaching, if you haven't turned in your RSVP yet, or by our mistake, never received an invitation-don't worry, there's still time! Email banquet@ewb-uc.org right now to reserve your spot.

Our spring banquet will be held on May 26th in the Presidential Banquet Hall of Lindner Center at UC. The program will begin at 6:30pm and will consist of a catered dinner, speakers such as UC Provost, Dr. Santa Ono and Stundent Body President Alan Hagerty, and presentations by EWB members about project progress.

If you have primary-aged children, there will be a craft program run concurrently with the main banquet so the whole family can attend without worrying about a babysitter.

Whether you're a company or organization that has sponsored us, a professor or professional that has guided us, or a family or friend that has cheered us along the way, we want you to come to our banquet.

An $80 per plate donation is encouraged to cover the expenses of holding this event and help fundraise for our projects. If you're on facebook, you can also RSVP to the facebook event. But remember, the official RSVP is done by emailing banquet@ewb-uc.org.

Committee Updates

This week the Nyambogo Project Committee has two new advisors, Nalin Sahni and Todd Trabert. We are looking to have our alternative analysis for this project done by the end of the month and we are hoping to move into the design phase by the beginning of next year.
In the Burere Project Committee, we are looking to meet with Peter next week for our assessment form and getting ready for the summer assessment trip. We are slated to have this project implemented during the winter holiday next year.

The Banquet is swiftly approaching and with only 2 weeks left we are kicking it into high gear to get everything ready in time.
We are stepping it up in our Fundraising Committee as well. We are in the process of applying for a grant that will hopefully cover the cost of our Otho Abwao project. We are also working on business cards and donation boxes.

World Fest

On Thursday some of our EWB members went out to World Fest to spread the word about EWB and get our name out to potential members. Those in attendance enjoyed different foods from around the world, different styles of dancing such as mariachi dancing, and different cultural music. Thanks to everyone who came and supported EWB at World Fest.

April EWBer of the Month

Danny Watson a.k.a. Gigawatson is EWBer of the month for the month of April. Danny is a 3rd year Mechanical Engineering student here at UC. Last quarter Danny was off on Co-op in Detroit, but didn't hesitate to jump right back into things in EWB when he got back. Danny has been an amazing help in getting in contact with people for the banquet and helping out with other things in the Education Committee. Danny has also been highly involved in the Social and Recruitment Committee. Along with balancing his course load and his EWB activities, he still manages to perform at Baba Budan's on their Thursday night Open Mic Nights. Thanks for all of your help Danny!
