Update on the Ear & Hearing Care (EHC) for Liberia
Last year our club donated $800 to the EHC project presented by Shoreview Rotarian Don Martin.  Here's an update:
April 2 was the Official Launch of the Ear & Hearing Care for Liberia! 

The President of Liberia, Joseph Boakai, presided over the ceremony. 

The Hearing Instruments provided by a Rotary International Global Grant will now be disbursed to 7 hospitals across Liberia for use by the trained Hearing Instrument Specialists.

More details at this link: Project Launch Details

If you would like to support the cause of training additional Hearing Instrument Specialists, use this link to The Liberia Hearing Health Scholarship Fund at The National Christian Foundation. Donations qualify as tax deductible. 

Thanks to all that have contributed to the success! 

All the best,

Next board meeting is April 21, 7:30a.m. via zoom
Please let Dave Hanson know if any members would like to attend.
