Boston University Water Brigade January 2017 Honduras



Aaron's Message

Hello! I will be going on my second brigade to Honduras in January 2017, which I am very excited about, so feel free to contact me and ask any questions you may have! Brigades can be expensive, and this is the second one that I am funding by myself. Any contribution is very much appreciated, and will go directly to helping communities that lack access to clean water in Honduras. Last year, our project affected over 500 families, and I cannot wait to return :)

Volunteer Activity Description

Global Brigades offers 7-day Water Brigades throughout the year in Honduras. Water Brigades' mission is to empower communities to access sufficient clean water through infrastructural development, water treatment, community leader training and education. Water Brigades volunteers assist in implementing clean water systems to prevent water-related illnesses in communities with limited access to clean water. One of the fundamental roadblocks to community development is lack of clean water. With a sufficient quantity of properly treated water, community members can cut off the connection between water and illness and ultimately live healthier, more productive lives. Volunteers work side-by-side with community members as well as with our in-country project technicians in all aspects of the water system's construction while learning about its design, functionality, and long-term sustainability.
