March 2011 University of Oregon Water Brigade

Start Date: Mar 20, 2011 11:00 PM
End Date: Mar 27, 2011 9:00 AM

Water Brigade volunteers work with professional engineers design full scale clean water systems to bring water directly into the homes of rural communities. Each water system is broken into week-long projects that volunteers implement alongside community members. After several brigades, a community is able to celebrate the creation of a complete water system, which helps to prevent communicable illnesses in communities.
