AguaClara Outreach Team

Motivation and Objectives

The Outreach Team is a vital and unique part of AguaClara that allows engineering and non-engineering majors to focus their attention on funding and promoting the organization. AguaClara is attempting to sustain itself financially while publicizing and promoting its achievements and seeking contacts to further its mission.

The goals of the Outreach Team include raising awareness of AguaClara both in the Cornell and Ithaca community, and raising funds to build plants and support those working for AguaClara in Honduras. The Outreach Team is constantly looking for new funding opportunities to expand on campus research.

The team is also responsible for establishing outreach team has three major goals. The first goal is to raise awareness of AguaClara to the general public and to the Cornell Community. The second goal is fundraising both to build plants in Honduras and for conducting research to improve and design AguaClara plants at Cornell. The third goal is recruiting new members to join the AguaClara team. Finally, we also need to establish processes, precedents, and standards for future outreach teams. By documenting our team members by documenting procedures and methods which make it will be easier for future outreach teams members to pick up continue the tasks of fundraising, recruiting and creating awareness.
