Our speaker today was Kim Baxter, a fellow Rotarian from North Platte, Nebraska. He shared information on a a few global grant projects he’s worked on improving healthcare in Kakamega, Kenya. He began visiting as part of a program providing donated eye glasses. He discovered their hospital needed incubators for new borns. A global grant was awarded for the equipment and training, there was also money to restore a clinic for and set up equipment and training for OB doctors and nurses.
What a terrific project. Rushmore Rotary, through our district designated funds helped contribute to this grant. Your giving to the Rotary Foundation really leads to great work throughout the world.
