This
week's Rotary Foundation Thought is about Matching Grants
Rotary
Clubs in Wisconsin created the Power Flour Action Network
to make an impact on the lives of infants and severely malnourished
children and adults. Power Flour has targeted malnourished
populations in 65 countries to date, providing a very small amount of
barley malt flour to cooked starchy staples, such as rice, wheat or
maize. The supplement helps digest the starch, converting it into
sugars the body can absorb quickly and easily. The sugars power
the body so that it can grow and function. A Matching Grant from
The Rotary Foundation has enabled Rotarians in Wisconsin to bring
Power Flour to children in orphanages and feeding programs in
Panama. Rotarians in the Rotary del Norte club in Panama will carry
out the distribution and training in Panama to reach up to 10,000
children in the first year. Members of the Sturgeion Bay, WI club
are now working to develop a commercial model for Power Flour so
that it will become self-sustaining.
Every
Rotarian, Every Year - Nourishing bodies and minds.
