Hope Village in Talca Chile Opens Thanks to Rotary
Posted by Stuart M. Palmer
"Aldea Esperanza" "Hope Village" was dedicated May 13, 2010 by Rotary members, the Governor and Mayor of Talca last week. Our Rotary contributions to the Chilean Quake Emergency Fund - funds directly from Rotary Club of Ft. Collins Foothills and then a separate fund with proceeds also to the Chilean Quake Relief Effort from many sources (individuals and clubs) around the district have garnered immediate results with low-cost housing for many families devastated at the center of the quake in Talca, Chile. Each home costs $1,000 to build and will provide a family with a home where they lost everything in the quake.
