This past summer Lenovo partnered with Wine to Water to offer two Lenovo EDU community students and two Lenovo staff members a trip to the Amazon to help first hand with Wine to Water’s mission to address the water crisis in the region and educate children about healthy water and sanitation habits.
The Lenovo EDU Community will be featuring the experiences from these four volunteers over the next few weeks so that they can highlight their own journeys and reflect on what the trip meant to them and inspire others to help out where they can.
To kick things off we wanted to share the amazing video submissions that Sung and Aaron submitted along with the Lenovo employees Clarissa and Rebeka. Each of their submissions really convey why this trip and volunteering is important in their own lives.
