Aug 2 - Merle Taylor - Project Amigo
Merle gave us an overview of recent efforts of the Project Amigo of Canada Society to assist youth and communities in the Colima area in Mexico through education and social assistance volunteer projects. The society provides reasonably priced "all inclusive" tours for Rotarians and other volunteers to enjoy a "cultural experience" and engage in hands-on projects to improve local living conditions.

Project Amigo – Transforming Lives through Education in Colima, Mexico Merle Taylor is a Rotarian from the Rotary Club of Edmonton Glenora and is a volunteer board member with Project Amigo Canada. Project Amigo was initiated by a group of Rotarians 34 years ago and its purpose is to end poverty through education for disadvantaged children in the state of Colima Mexico. Project Amigo offers volunteer work weeks to allow sponsors to meet these children and to contribute to Project Amigo in very tangible ways. A volunteer vacation at Project Amigo is an experience that could change your life! Merle will describe the project to you and opportunities for volunteering or sponsoring a child.
