More exciting news! Josefina Urena, President of the Host Club Rotario Salcedo, District 4060, e-mailed me today that The Rotary Foundation this morning wired a deposit into their Club special bank account the total sum of our current project, $13,702, to equip 3 community libraries in the City of Salcedo, Dominican Republic! Efforts will begin immediately to equip one library at a time. Two of us from our International Sponsor Club, The Rotary Club of Scott Valley, District 5110, are planning to travel to Salcedo in early December to help with the project. We will also visit the sites of our other 3 projects there. Those projects were a computer equipped elementary school classroom in 2007, a physiotherapy equipped center in 2008 and a computer equipped high school classroom in 2009. Special thanks for this current libraries project go to our Co-Sponsors, the Rotary Clubs of Eugene Metro, Central Point, Medford Rogue, Myrtle Point, Cottage Grove and Bend High Desert, all of District 5110. Without you, we couldn't have done it.
Together we are Building World Understandings through Service Above Self,
