AECOM Impact Blog: Employee has an Unforgettable Experience During “Engineers Without Borders” Volunteer Trip
By Aaron Lee, AECOM Engineer, Water
As our truck rolled into the village center, children and adults alike would wave, with wide smiles and yell “Bula!” This means “hello” in Fijian, and for two weeks, I would hear it from every person I met. I have just returned from an Engineers Without Borders (EWB) project implementation trip to Fiji and will attempt to capture a glimpse of my experiences with this post.
Learn more about Aaron's experience volunteering with EWB in Fiji.
Drawing from the experience of its approximately 45,000 employees, the AECOM Impact Blog provides the firm with an opportunity to share stories about employee excellence, industry insights, innovative project solutions, corporate social responsibility experiences, safety for life and sustainable perspectives. We hope you’ll join the conversation.
