25 Donors to the Humanitarian Engineering Club unlocks $10,000 for the program
Professor Doug Stahl's passion stems from his experience with this group from 2005 to 2023. He shares, "I had the privilege of guiding MSOE's top students in civil infrastructure projects in Guatemala. Though the group's name changed, their dedication to quality work and collaboration remained constant. In tribute to the students, mentors, Guatemalan staff, and volunteers I worked with, I'm delighted to support MSOE's Humanitarian Engineering Club with an unlock challenge of $10,000." This means that for every 5 donors, $2,000 will be unlocked for the Humanitarian Engineering Club up to $10,000!
