If we find a way to provide access to safe drinking water for everyone in the world, that would mean that less people would die of water-communicable illnesses and water would be clean and healthy for everyone.

Team Collaboration

To accomplish this project, we met often before school, sometimes as early as 7:30. Our group had to face many obstacles, as this was completed not as a mandatory, but as a voluntary project. Two of our group members left out of town for Spring Break; neither had access to a computer. We had many strengths. One of our group members was good at persuasion, so he wrote in a way so that people would be convinced to fund this or start the organization at any cost. One of our group members was really good at research, so he was in charge of finding facts and figures. Our final member was an all-around, so he was able to direct the project when we needed him the most.

Team Diversity

All of our team came from India. Our parents were familiar with the subject of the water crisis, as it also had a major impact on India. Therefore, we were already equipped with some information. We had basically the same backgrounds and cultures, and we all live in the same area.
