He has supported Rotary in various charitable projects, especially in distributing used equipment from Interior Health to poor areas in different parts of the word such as Myanmar and Haiti. About Murli Pendharkar Murli Pendharkar was born, raised, and educated (B. Sc., B. Ed) in India and later in Canada (B. Ed., M. Ed. Degrees from Toronto). Murli and his wife Sudha went to Tanzania in 1954, where he worked as a Math/ Science teacher for Govt. run Indian secondary schools. Murli was in Tanzania for 7 years and in 1961 immigrated to Canada (Luseland, Sask.) as a Math/Science teacher. Murli was appointed Principal (Luseland, Sask.), and later a Superintendent of schools in BC. He joined the Rotary Club in Kelowna in 1978. He retired from his professional career in 1987, and set out to accomplish his life’s goal by contributing his time to volunteer for a cause: Red Cross, Society for the mentally handicapped, Rotary, a three term School Trustee; and appointed chairman of the Health Board. For the Rotary Murli held several positions at the district level through the years. One of his many accomplishments was to ship six 40ft container loads of used medical equipment to Uganda, Guinea, Mynamar & the Philippines. Murli is married to Sudha and they have three children and six grandchildren. Murli celebrated his 88th birthday in February 2018, and proposes to retire within six months. He is the ideal Rotarian with his many years of service. Although we have Preston Mott as our supreme Rotarian, Murli has 40 years of Rotary Service under his sleeve. We should all be very grateful for having people like Murli among our minds. The Project: The project that will be presented on our March 6 evening meeting is a rather unique one. It concerns the Miraj Highschool in India which is in dire condition on all fronts. Not only the building needs a lot of work but also school supplies are needed for the educational program. Dr. Vilas Prabhu grew up there and went to this school as a young child. So, he knows it very well. The school is located some 25 kms from Ichalkaranjiin India, which in turn is some 300km SE of Mumbai. The Rotary Club of Ichalkaranjiin has already shown interest to be the local partner and host club for the Miraj Highschool improvement project. We are in contact with Rotarian Mr. Agrawal who is the Global Grant Chairman for the Rotary there. His club has done quite a number of school projects before and hence is bringing critically needed experience to the table! COST: $20/person - includes dinner, dessert and coffee/tea GUESTS: Guests are always welcome to attend!
