At another very cordial meeting with East Sacramento on January 30th, we had our own famous member, Richard Olebe, tell us about water projects in Uganda. Above (left) Richard is pictured with East Sacramento's President Jim Fritsche (above right). Jim gave us another impressive lesson in accounting during his Vocational minute.
It's obvious that Richard has become an expert on water projects in Uganda. He recently traveled on a Rotary tour of water projects there and gave a nice PowerPoint presentation which you can see by clicking on "Read More" below and is produced in it's entirety. One slide says:
There were parallel projects with 1.8 million (USD) and $200,000 from Rotary Clubs in Uganda and from District 5180, 100 K each. How impressive is that - our own District 5180!
Richard also reported that our own project in Lyowla is functioning well in spite of a tree falling on one well and putting it out of commission for a short period. Richard emphasized that sustainability is very important and that there are plans for the government to take on overseeing various other projects after completion.
