ECO-PORTAL

Water Tank Project

The International Law Society (ILS) and Equity in Developing Countries Group
(EDC)  raised  $300 to donate to Volunteer Peten for the construction of three
ferro-cement water tanks.          
 
 
The ILS and EDC raised the money for the tanks in week long raffle fundraiser.
We set up a table with pictures from El Tigre, diagrams on how to construct
ferro cement water tanks, a print out from the volunteer web site, and an
explanation as to how the water tanks can make a difference in improving living
conditions/health and community planning. Click here to see an explanation
of FERROCEMENT WATER TANKS.

The support, interest, and positive feedback from the VLS community was great.
As for the raffle, roughly 150 Vermont law school students purchased tickets.  A
member of the EDC (Danielle Murray) donated incredible professional nature
photographs for the raffle. I also added a Hammock from Santa Elena and a
mosquito net.
