| LISENBY'S LATRINES |
The International Service Committee of the Rotary Club of Peoria will endeavor to raise $3,000 to build adequate latrines for the elementary school in San Jose-mi, Paraguay. This project is in partnership with Lynne & Jerry Lisenby who are Peace Corps volunteers in the town. The school has 96 students - all students and teachers currently use one primitive latrine. Cash donations will be collected at Friday Rotary meetings on October 13, 20 & 27. Our club will provide the funding; the people of San Jose-mi will make the bricks and construct the latrines. Sanitation is a serious problem in Paraguay. Please help. For futher information contact Martha Herm or the Rotary office. |
