The AguaClara project provides students an opportunity to carry on [Ezra Cornell's vision|http://www.engineering.cornell.edu/explore/tradition-of-innovation/index.cfm]: his sense of invention, his focus on the future, his belief in hands-on learning, his dream of a well-rounded education available to anyone. h4.

Since then full scale municipal plants have been added in [Marcala], [Tamara], [Cuatro Comunidades], and [Agalteca]. To the right you see influent and effluent water collected at the plant in Cuatro Comunidades. The brown turbid plant influent water is in the bottle on the left, and the clear water on the right is what the plant was producing from it! h2. Current Goals We are raising funds for water treatment plants in Honduras. We ask that you [donate] to bring safe water to many people, and that you continue to invest in the education, innovation, and capacity building that are included in each AguaClara project. [Why Donate] Our work is only possible through the generous contributions of our sponsors. We require continuous funding to develop the most efficient and cost effective drinking water treatment plants. Our implementation [partners] also need support to build these plants. If you are interested in becoming a supporter there are multiple options for [making a tax deductible donation|donate]. \\ {float:right|border=2px solid black|width=220px} [!Ojojona photos^Ojojona Plant.jpg|width=220px!|Ojojona photos] {float} *QUESTIONS?* Contact the project director: [Monroe Weber-Shirk|mailto:mw24@cornell.edu] (Cornell University) Phone: (607) 255-8445 Skype monroeweber-shirk \\ Please join us on Facebook and LinkedIN to show your support, group name: AguaClara.
