This week's
Rotary Foundation Thought is about bridging the world's needs.
During the rainy season in Ethiopia many rural communities are isolated
by fast flowing flooded rivers that separate them from vital aspects of
life. With support from a Rotary Foundation Matching Grant eight
foot bridges were built to alleviate these villages isolation.
Sponsored by the Rotary Club of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia and the Rotary club
of Gloucester, Virginia, these bridges will improve the living conditions
of local communities and provide them with access to life's daily
needs. So even during the rainy season in Ethiopia, Rotarians will
know that through contributions to The Rotary Foundation they helped
provide a bridge for these communities.
