SPREADING THE WORD

The Rotary Club of Grand Island has started spreading the word about the mission of bringing convenient water to the village of Kitsaning in the Republic of the Congo - Brazzaville by speaking to surrounding groups - Rotary clubs, EarlyAct clubs and more.   The Rotary Club of Fort Erie has already promised $500.  Getting support at home is also important.
