WASH Rotary Action Group video wins 3rd placeThis is a chance for all of us to share in the joy that WASH projects bring to our beneficiary communities. The Rotary Clubs of Bath, York, Boothbay and Bath Sunrise along with District 7780 supported this fun and rewarding effort. The kids learned about the transmission of germs by handing around a glitter ball. The children built their own Tippy-Tap hand washing station and many requested materials in order to build one at home. The link brings up a YouTube ad first...push "skip ad". |

Final Dispatch from CambodiaRich Cromwell is back home in Maine and this is his final report from Cambodia.
2014 Water, Sanitation and Hygiene Project in Cambodia The last week: Our consultant, Kristen, and I met on Tuesday to conduct the final review of our “Knowledge, Attitude and Practices (KAP) Survey”. The insight that we have gained into water, sanitation and hygiene issues in these five villages is amazing and will guide us through developing a holistic, in depth action plan to address the villagers’ desperate situation. The data is so comprehensive that it will also act as a baseline and allow us, upon completion of the project, to measure our results accurately. We were able to reconcile the villager survey with our interviews with the five village chiefs, and blending the results of those separate surveys gave us a lot of confidence in both surveys’ results. |

Dispatch from Cambodia part 1Hello Fellow Rotarians, It is Monday night the 17th of November here in Siem Reap Cambodia. My first week has been busy and in keeping with the schedule and goals established in our grant request. On Wednesday the 12th I met at "Water for Cambodia" (WFC) , our Rotary sponsored partner, with Nthabeleng, the Director, and Kristin, a consultant hired to develop our village survey and compile the data we produce. We spent a few hours reviewing our grant application and synching it with reporting documents that are commonly used in gathering decision making data that will be used in the context of a global grant. I devoted Thursday to the kids at the orphanage we supported last year. A glorious touching day spent with healthy, joyful children. Just a quick word about the political subdivision of Cambodia. Cambodia is divided into Provinces which are further subdivided into Districts, Communes and lastly, Villages |
