 Matching Grant #15711
Rotary Club of Tacna, Peru D4870

 

The Rotary Club of Alcira, Argentina reached out to D6060 through their district Foundation Chairman Eduardo Quinteros.

Chairman Eduardo is active in the Rotary Fellowship, Rotarians On The Internet, and contacted fellow ROTI member Todd Lindley, who promoted the project throughout D6060 via email.

 

The Rotary Club of Alcira had discovered the need within Alcira for home health equipment.  Their local "Center for Health" needed a lot more equipment to loan out to local residents to aid in their recovery process after hospitalization or injury.

This project purchased hospital beds, wheelchairs, walkers, canes, crutches, and other home health equipment. Nearly $6,000 worth of equipment in total.

Quite a roomful of equipment has arrived to help their community.



D4870 Governor came and visited after the equipment arrived.
