Worldwide, more than 748 million people live without access to clean water
 and at least 3,000 children die each day from diarrheal diseases 
caused by unsafe water.
 Rotary is working to change that.
 For example, members used a Rotary grant to drill more than 20 clean-water wells 
and to repair another 30 in villages across Ghana. 
The project also included education about and treatment of Buruli ulcer,
 a debilitating infection that if untreated can lead to disability and death.
 Nearly 70,000 people will benefit from this initiative.

 Microscopes a gift for Midwest Primary Schools

Primary school students in the Midwest have been given a special gift 
and can take a closer look at the world around them,
 thanks to a project sponsored by the Rotary Club of Geraldton.

The Rotary WA Microscopes in Schools Project is an initiative 
of the Chief Scientist of WA Professor Lyn Beazley 
and the Rotary Club of Freshwater Bay.
  As part of this primary schools are provided with microscopes 
and activity booklets with which students can study plant structure 
and soil composition and learn how plants adapt to available water.

Three Midwest Schools, Waggrakine Primary School,
 Dongara Primary and Mingenew have benefited from the donation.  
The Water Corporation will contribute activity books plus
 a Water Corporation Education Officer will also visit the schools 
to conduct lessons as part of the Corporation’s Waterwise Schools Program.
