Who We Are Impacting: This community has 456 people who make up 76 families!
What We Are Designing: We are working on a water distribution system. They have a lot of access to water, but no way to distribute it throughout the community.
Where We Are Working: El Pericón Chuacorral Sector II
Why We Are Here: Since 1996, this community has been looking for a way to bring in a water project, but it has been very difficult. Until, in 2019, when they found help from the municipality to drill the well for them, but now they continue to seek help for
distribution. The community also feels that this water project will improve the economy and health of their people.

Summer/Fall 2020:
This project is in pre-assessment phase right now! We have gotten some fantastic information and photos of the community from the EWB office in Guatemala. Due to COVID-19, we are executing a virtual assessment for our water project in order to keep the timeline for this project on track. We will be working with our team and mentors to think outside of the box about how to make a virtual assessment just as successful as if we had been able to travel and perform it ourselves. One advantage we have is the excellent team in Guatemala we have been able to work with that are doing everything they can to help us make this project a success!
