CHEHELTAN School Project Is Complete
Read the report from Bill re the completion of the Cheheltan School Project in Afghanistan. Also see the power point presentation from Nicole. It is above the stories section of the web site. Also note that our club is on the school plaque.
CHEHELTAN School Project Is Complete
Dear Partners in our Afghanistan school project;
The project is complete.
What started as a $3,000 District Grant by the Rotary Club of Humble Intercontinental grew into a $10,450 plus project thanks to cash contributions from eight more clubs - Houston, Houston Heights, West U, North Shore, Willowbrook, Baytown, Bear Creek Copperfield and Brazosport.
The Power Point presentation that I received today from Nicole Heydari is attached and is an excellent summary of the accomplishments.
Nicole will be completing her term with the International Security Assistance Forces of NATO in Kabul in early December to resume her Master's Degree program in Vienna which is partially funded by the Rotary Clubs of Houston and Humble Intercontinental.
I draw your attention to the plaque in the first page of the Power Point which reads "these classrooms were built in October 2012 for the children of Cheheltan Middle School in support of education in Afghanistan by the following Texas Rotary Clubs (United States of America)". The plaque has been placed on the exterior wall of one of the classrooms.
Nicole did an outstanding job of identifying this need and overseeing the project to completion. Let's also thank Felipe La Rotta of the Humble club who collected and shipped to Nicole six boxes of school supplies.
Thank you all nine clubs for your support.
You might want to email Nicole and congratulate her and thank her for this wonderful project.
Sincerely,
Bill Davis
