This year’s District 5170 International Project will be within the Rotary family, minimizing the dollars used on administrative costs – in other words, every penny of your money will be spent helping the needy! We will be fundraising for three projects on three continents, spreading our love farther than ever before. The first continent we will hit is Africa. Last year, we were able to donate mosquito nets and toys to a village in Ghana. This year, we will partner up with Rotaractors in Ghana to build and furnish a school – from scratch – for a village.

The problem: The average Ngome Bugle, Panamanian Indian has seven to eight nasty parasites in their body from the polluted water that they drink. I am concerned about their health. I believe they need pure water to serve their community of men, women and children.
Our solution: Myself and team A will travel to Indiana to build a water purifier and transport the purifier from Indiana to Pennsylvania in January 2008. Then myself and group B will transport the purifier to Panama in February 2008.
