Update 1 - THANK YOU!

April 22, 2014

On behalf of the UTSA ASCE Student chapter we want to thank all the generous friends and alumni who have already donated to support our Steel Bridge Team. Your support helps us get closer to our goal of competing for the National Steel Bridge Title next month. Last week we attended the ASCE Texas Section San Antonio Branch chapter meeting and were overwhelmed at the positive response – we raised over $200 at one meeting! Thank you so much ASCE San Antonio Branch!

 

As the Steel Bridge Team Captain I would also like to take the time to personally thank you, this competition means a lot to my team, we have put countless hours into this competition. Your help shows that the community sees values in the experience gained through this project.

 

Please continue to share this website with your co-workers, friends and family – together we can reach our goal and bring home the top prize!  

 

Thank you,

Hiep Nguyen

4 More Days—Please Spread the Word

THANK YOU SPONSORS:

Wow! I am overwhelmed by your generosity. It is wonderful to know how much support UTSA’s civil engineering students have in the community.  Yes, we have achieved our goal and a third of the Steel Bridge team has a secured trip to Akron, Ohio. To send the remaining team members we still need your help.  

This web page closes in four days, so please ask your friends, family members or other engineering companies to continue helping us. To send all team members we are looking at a minimum of $7,500. So I urge you to continue donating, any amount helps.

You really make my life easier as ASCE Faculty Advisor. Without your support I would not have been able to help the students participate in the National Steel Bridge competition. Thanks for all your support.
