DISCOVER A NEW WORLD OF MUSIC WHILE HELPING MANY COMMUNITIES

Join us for a night of soul-stirring music, food, and fellowship to raise money for Engineers Without Borders- USA.  Engineers Without Borders - USA (EWB-USA) is a non-profit humanitarian organization established to partner with developing communities worldwide in order to improve their quality of life. This partnership involves the implementation of sustainable engineering projects, while involving and training internationally responsible engineers and engine
ering students.  With EWB-USA North Texas Chapter communities thought Central and South American will get potable water, better sanitation and irrigation, bridges, schools, clinics, and other basic infrastructure that we in the U.S. take for granted.  This fundraiser will directly benefit projects in Guatemala and Mexico.    Funds will also support Engineers In Action for their four EIA engineers in Bolivia who make from $450- $600 a month (one of whom is a UTA graduate and former EWB North Texas Chapter member). 

Internationally recognized folk singer Juan Carlos Cordero will be performing with his wife, Mirtha Cordero, to raise money for these critical projects. Cordero, who lives in La Paz, Bolivia, has toured Europe and Japan, and still directs the music every Sunday at his local church.


Ayni means "community," and the need in these communities is very real. Clean water projects alone have saved the lives of thousands of children. Help us continue these critical efforts. Together, we can bring hope to these communities. 

The event will be held on Thursday, March 4th at St. Andrew United Methodist Church, 5801 W.  Plano Parkway, Plano, TX.   A reception and silent auction will be held from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.  Dinner and presentations start at 7:00 p.m. with the concert music beginning at 8:00 p.m.  The cost for the concert and  Andean style meal will be $50 per person.   To purchase tickets or to sponsor the event, please contact Matt Craig at 214-642-8319 or mcraig@halff.com .
