The main purpose of the Public Relations Working Group is to raise awareness about international water related issues, specifically the quest to provide access to safe drinking water, and how AguaClara strives to meet these goals.
To gain awareness and exposure for the AguaClara cause, the Public Relations group has been making posters and giving presentations to many interested parties around campus including Cornell Health International, and the Bio-Expo. We have been sending press releases to a multitude of local media outlets including the Cornell Daily Sun and the Ithaca Journal.
