RCWP and Bahía, Ecuador: 2009

The Rotary Club of White Plains (New York) has supported the Bahía Rotary Club for many years. In 2009, with the help of our INTERACT club at White Plains High School, we were able to raise more than $11,000 for the construction of a new school in the community of Fanca, an impoverished section of Bahía de Caráquez. See bahia2010.htm for more about the school.


Con mucha eficiencia y responsabilidad el Club Rotario de Bahía de Caráquez, continúa trabajando en beneficio de los más necesitados, como muestra de su trabajo informamos a la comunidad, que el día 05 de noviembre del 2009, el compañero Rotario, Evan Delman, del Club de White Plains de Ney York, realizó una importante donación de $ 11.000 dólares (once mil dólares), para la construcción de una nueva aula y oficinas administrativas para la escuela Rotaria de Fanca, la misma que iniciará su construcción inmediatamente, con el apoyo de profesionales Rotarios y la colaboración de importantes instituciones de la localidad.

Los socios Rotarios, siguiendo el lema para este año “El Futuro de Rotary está en tus manos,” siguen demostrando su compromiso altruista por las más nobles causas de la sociedad.
