Read the history of this exciting project and the current plans as the work continues to bring clean, safe water to this remote region. Learn how individuals, groups, churches and the Rotary International Foundation have been able to work together to drill over 120 wells and build a pipeline that brings water to 20,000 people. Consider how you might be able to partcipate. Find out how Haitians have been able to be trained to support the work and maintain the wells to create self sustaining development.

Every Rotarian has joined because they found an area of program, service and fellowship which interested them and then they have gone on to learn more about the International aspects...activities like International Student Exchange, Ambassadorial Scholarships, PolioPlus...the effort to eradicate polio from the earth...and many more....

We invite members of the community who might like to learn more about Rotary and how they could become involved with Rotary to use the contact form on our contact page to let us know of your interest. A member of the club will follow up with you and provide information on how to attend a meeting, what Rotary offers and what you might need to know to decide whether Rotary is the place for you to give back to your community...

Thank you for your support of the work of Rotary....
