Program
Program for 04_10_2019:
 
Barbara Kiernan from the Catalina Rotary Club spoke about the Rotary Global Grant for improving rural health care in Sonora, Mexico and specifically the opening of a clinic in Alamos, Sonora.  The sponsoring clubs were the RC de Navajoa near Alamos (local) and the Catalina Club RC of Tucson (international).  There were several supporting clubs, including Casas Adobes which donated $2,000.  With the matching grant from the district, it became $5,000.  The clinic opening and inauguration of the grant was in early February.   Mike Kloehn was in the group from Tucson that attended. The grant is for 2 years.
The goal of the project is to provide sustainable health care for 7 villages of the indigenous Makurawe people by building on established cultural health care traditions, disease prevention and treatment.  The plan is to train local people from high school age up to perform simple medical procedures, provide awareness and education and translate from the local language to Spanish.  Tele-medicine using solar power will also be used as the villages are in remote and difficult to access areas.
