ACTUAL ATTENDANCE (# UCSD UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS) 30

IF THERE WAS A DIFFERENCE IN THE ESTIMATED AND ACTUAL ATTENDANCE NUMBERS, PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY YOU THINK THERE WAS A DIFFERENCE. HOW CAN YOU DECREASE THE DIFFERENCE IN ATTENDANCE NUMBERS FOR FUTURE EVENTS? Did not have the predicted number of members from UCSD orgs aside from our own Rotaract club. In future, we will be clearer about a formal collaboration between orgs to encourage their members to participate.

WHAT WAS THE PURPOSE OR GOAL OF THE EVENT?
WAPI Project is an annual gathering of the Rotaract community in which we make WAPIs (Water Pasteurization Indicators). WAPIs are reusable devices that show when water has reached pasteurization temperature and is safe to drink. In some areas of the world, people collect water from natural sources, which are often ridden with disease-causing bacteria. To prevent getting sick, the water is typically boiled prior to drinking/using. However, water does not need to be boiled in order to be safe to drink, because pasteurization (the act of using heat to kill off the dangerous bacteria) occurs at 150° F, a much lower temperature than water's boiling point (212° F). Therefore, a lot of time and resources, such as fuel and wood, are wasted when water is brought to the boiling point, rather than the pasteurization point. This is where the WAPI comes in. A WAPI contains a special wax that melts at 150° and indicates when the water is safe to drink. Thus, WAPIs help communities lacking easy access to clean, drinkable water save time, money, and energy, by indicating when their water is safe to drink, before it boils! Our club buys WAPI making kits from a 3rd party, assembles them, then sends them to the people in need. This event relates to our motto, service above self, because we are gathering with other Rotaractors as well as other people of the community, to help make these devices to send to those who are in need of clean drinking water.

DO YOU CONSIDER THE EVENT TO HAVE BEEN A SUCCESS? WHY OR WHY NOT?
The event was a success. We made over 900 WAPIs and brought together the Rotaract community as well as UCSD students.

DID ATTENDANCE DIFFER FROM WHAT WAS RECORDED ON A.S ATTENDANCE VERIFICATION? IF SO, WHY?
The event was open to anyone to make WAPIs

WHAT IF ANY COMPLICATIONS AROSE DURING THE EVENT?
No complications

WHAT STEPS OR ITEMS WOULD YOU IMPROVE FOR THE NEXT EVENT?
Collaboration with more on-campus orgs.

WHAT ONLINE CHANGES WOULD YOU MAKE TO ADVERTISEMENTS OR PROMOTION?
Share the event on more UCSD org social media pages
