We have been working with the Rotary Club of Felipe Bassura's mother to purchase equipment for a neo-natal unit at Santa Casa Hospital in Brazil. Felipe was our GRSP student two years ago. We are the lead international partner for this project through The Rotary Foundation. Some equipment has arrived, and all will be delivered by end of September, and we have received an invitation through Felipe from our club partner for our club to visit the hospital and attend a special celebration (quinceanera) for underprivileged girls October 13. The celebration is sponsored by the Rotary Club of Raio de Luz.
If you'd like to represent the Rotary Club of Dunwoody (at your expense), let Louise Barden know … soon! She and Ron are leaving in early September for Italy (at their expense) to represent RCD at an event for the Cesena, Italy Alzheimer’s Project. This project is also funded in part by our club through The Rotary Foundation.
