Penticton-Okanagan Water Project

The Penticton-Okanagan Rotary club members partnered with Sonargaon Dhaka for a joint project in one of the rural areas in Bangladesh.  The proposal’s three phases included an Initial Needs Assessment, an Action Plan, and the Project Implementation.  During the Needs Assessment process, extensive input was solicited and received from all sectors of the villages. The Needs Assessment report gave the project a good foundation and direction, as well as providing a meaningful document to assist with grant applications.  Working for 3 years with a Rotary International matching grant the $38,000 project resulted in 13 tube wells, water pipelines, and many other benefits.
