Nov 15 Weekly Foundation Thoughts

It is as simple as having a notebook, pencil and glue. In Pavas, a poor district in San Jose, Costa Rica a packet of educational materials means the difference between an education and working on the street. Most public schools in Costa Rica are under funded and lack many basic supplies, so the Rohrmoser Rotary Club, Costa Rica developed a packet of teaching materials for students and partnered with the Vancouver Rotary Club, Canada to distribute 777 packets to children in five very poor elementary schools. US$100 buys 15 packets.

Without this project many students would not be able to continue their education and would be forced to drop out of school.

When Every Rotarian, Every Year participates, our foundation is able to continue to build a brighter future for the children of the world.
