The members of the International Services Committee who actively participated in gathering the $261,154 USD required to fund the Global Grant in the villages of Aloi, Alebtong District and Barlonyo, Lira District in Northern Uganda, are delighted to announce that we have reached our goal. In total we have 28 Rotary Clubs partnering with us - from coast to coast in Canada and several in the USA. We also have several personal donors as well as other organizations partnering with us, including WASRAG. Five Districts are contributing District Designated Funds and those amounts are included in the $261,154. Our sincere THANKS go out to ALL participating partners.
The site visits by the Foundation team of experts will conclude on June 1st. The Foundation contact person has sent an extensive list of questions and our partner in Kampala is addressing them. At this point we are still hoping the Foundation can review the application at their meeting in June.
Recently Ron Denham of WASRAG visited the two sites where our project will start in July. To view the video, click here.
