"For small to medium to national organizations, for events and fundraisers of any size, in any format – live, virtual or hybrid – the platform is built for scale."

Andrew Stewart, Prof. John Scharf, Phil Porrini and Jacquie Schmidt are part of ‘Engineers without Borders’ at Carroll College. Students Stewart and Schmidt, along with Prof. Scharf and local engineer Porrini, have designed a septic and graywater system for an orphanage in Mexico.

They will travel to Mexico next month to help install a sewer and septic system at an orphanage in the southeast part of the country.

Through the college’s two-year-old chapter of Engineers Without Borders, nine students along with a faculty advisor and local professional engineer will spend eight days in Queretaro, implementing the system they designed.
