Honduras: What would be do without the Rotarians and their Wives?



What we do without them - the Rotarians and now the wives of the Rotarians!!!

Today we enjoyed the company and hard work of many of the men and their wives who are associated with the Hondurans Oversees Volunteers Partners - namely the Rotarians of Tegucigalpa.

Here we have Gustavo - next year's Rotarian's president (in the dark jacket) and Don sitting in the chair acting as translators while Jim (team member) interviews a father of one of the children. They are looking the bedkit and showing the parent each article. They are asking questions such as  - What is the most useful part of this kit? and making sure they understand the impotance of each item.

These are the women behind those men who came out today. Here Inez (who is Fidel's wife - the current president and SCAW representative, Ana (Juan's wife), Milala (Sergio's wife) and Gladys (Maurizio's wife) who will be leading the women next year are checking the children's names off after they've had their pictures taken.


And finally Juan and Sergio help the children carry their kits out to their waiting teachers.
We can't thanks them enough for their help and support. Even Jose (our host for the day) got involved by telling the children that what they will be getting today is in fact from the generous support of SCAW in Canada and the U.S. We were please to see that many of them knew that Canada is north of the United States.

So from the start to the end of the process, we thank the Rotarians and their wives for another GREAT Day.

Mucho Gratias,

Theresa Carravetta - Team Honduras 2012
