American Structurepoint Raises Big Bucks For EWB Tournament

The American Structurepoint kickball teams comprising structural, civil, and utility infrastructure employees raised the most money of all teams participating in the Indianapolis professional chapter of Engineers Without Borders (EWB) annual kickball tournament. The kickball tournament raised $3,820 to fund ongoing project work in Guangaje, Ecuador. Funds from the August kickball tournament will allow EWB to survey a pipeline route to a new water source and provide materials to implement the project. The Guangaje community will have access to reliable and clean water as early as spring 2022. Way to go everyone!
