<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: medium;"><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 16.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Times-Roman;">Engineers Without Borders-USA began in 2000 by Professor Bernard Amadei with the goal of creating positive change for developing communities through the combined efforts of students, faculty, professional engineers and community members. The CU chapter was the first in the organization that has now grown to include EWB-USA, which has 206 chapters and 130+ projects in 34 countries, with 4000+ members.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 16.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 16.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Times-Roman;">Successful implementation of the sustainable solutions EWB students develop requires both time and money. Of course, all developing community projects are faced with similar challenges; but for EWB students the task is made even more daunting as they work on these projects while simultaneously completing a rigorous engineering curriculum in order to obtain their degrees. Even so, they devote countless hours to this work.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 16.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: Times-Roman, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Times-Roman;">The students put in the time; let's help them with the money. 100% of KWB tournament proceeds go to EWB, so join up or become a sponsor now!<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 16.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;"><br />
