Rwanda Kitchen & Bakery Project
Aug. 11, 2021
Amanda Helwig will coordinate a presentation about their District 7430 Grant to build a Kitchen and Bakery in Rwanda. They are seeking help from our fellow Rotary Clubs, as we need to raise $34,500 to make this happen. Amanda may be joining us in-person. The two presenters, Zooming in live from Rwanda, are Janet Brown and Bill Whipple. Together, Jan and Bill share 6 children, 8 grandchildren, including their Rwandan grandchild, William Brown Irakoze (Sweet Pea), shown in the photo with Bill, 3 great-grandchildren, plus 230 children at Bright School.
Janet Brown, M.Ed., a Penn State grad, is an international consultant in early childhood and primary teacher education. Jan capped a long career in teaching and educational publishing when she joined Crayola as Managing Editor. After her retirement--and having traveled to every continent except Africa--she was asked to start a preschool in Rwanda. Since 2010, she has volunteered as a teacher mentor and along the way founded and became president of TEACH Rwanda, an INGO based in the Lehigh Valley. William Whipple III, B.S., is a retired clinical dietician and diabetes educator with the Lehigh Valley Health Network. Bill also has restaurant management experience and is fluent in French. He and Jan married in 2012 and he moved to Rwanda to be with her shortly after. As a TEACH Rwanda volunteer and board member, he manages the organization's business on two continents, mentors our local administrative staff, and makes sure that our schools are healthy places to play and learn. |

Polio Plus
Sep. 15, 2021
Carol Ferguson, the Polio Plus Coordinator for our District, will be our virtual presenter. She is a survivor. With a team of volunteers they launched a Network that serves others in 2014. Working with and becoming a part of the Rotary Family has been the best part of their work. Carol appreciates our hybrid/online option, and loves 7am. Carol’s presentation The Polio Truths is a different perspective on the topic, from a Team of Survivors who have come together to help Rotarians understand the real story of just how destructive the poliovirus can be. The gift of Rotarians being willing to stay the course for the eradication of this disease, has resulted in an infrastructure that is impacting world health in a way that no one could have anticipated. This message becomes even more important as more and more Clubs in our District are bringing in new, younger members - members that may not even realize they had the polio vaccine as children. Polio survivors all over the US and abroad are truly grateful for this enormous effort. |
