The Solon Rotary Club is excited to announce the approval of our grant for our water project in El Salvador.  Our water project will supply fresh water to over 200 people, and water to a sustainable farm project that teaches El Salvadorians how to grow fresh vegetables and fruits.  This is a very special day in the history of our club, and another one of our significant contributions of service.
 
Soon the El Salvadorian families will not be traveling three hours in dry season to get their daily supply of water.  Soon they will have plentiful potable water for cooking, cleaning and general hygiene.  The sustainable farm will be growing Papaya’s and all kind of other foods that require more water.  The water project is a game changer for this small region of Chiltiupan, El Salvador.  We are proud to have been part of it, and we will see the project all the way through.
 
We would like to offer special thanks to Jodie Bowers and the congregation of St. Dominic’s Church for all their efforts; thanks to Bud Thomas for his tedious work on the grant and always keeping us on track; thanks to the entire Rotary Club of Solon for all their efforts; thanks to the local support of Santa Tecla Rotary Club; and thanks to Xenia Pereira of El Basalmo, El Salvador for his patience and efforts.
