This summer a team of seven students and one faculty member traveled to Obodan, Ghana in order to implement the projects the club spent more than a year engineering. While in country,
the delegation was able to present an improved business plan for the Brooder House built in 2006 as well as complete a Training Center. For more information, be sure to check out the
Obodan 2008 Project page.
Our club recently
voted to adopt a new project following
our successes in Ghana. Many options
were considered, but ultimately a
project in the Batay Cojobal, Dominican
Republic was finally chosen. The village
has requested that EWB-RHIT design and
assists in the construction of an
expansion to a mobile medical clinic.
Currently, the clinic does not have
access to consistent electricity or
water, and does not have adequate
facilities to handle the large capacity
of visitors. EWB-RHIT will fill this
need by designing a safe addition to the
current clinic. For more information, be sure to check out the
Dominican Republic 2009 Project page.
EWB-RHIT meets every Wednesday at 7:15pm in O157. Everyone is welcome to attend. Our next meeting will be on
September 30, 2009. For more information, contact Adam Kirchner.
