After being unable to do so many planned events and projects this past year, if your Rotary club has any unspent funds remaining, certainly one of the best investments you could make with those monies is to provide an Interact Ambassadors Scholarship to send one of our 16 best and most capable Interactors to Kenya or Central Mexico in July.
 
Persisting in believing they could still do this, the eight member Interact Ambassadors to Kenya and Ambassadors to Mexico teams have “kept the faith” this year, and have been diligently working in their bi-weekly online training sessions to prepare for their Rotary international service mission of bringing the gift of mobility to so many of the disabled poor who need this equipment in these countries.  
 
Although fundraising has been difficult this year with the pandemic, our Interact District 5495 has successfully shipped 40-ft. containers of mobility equipment, collected by our Interact and Rotary clubs, to central Mexico and to Uganda/Kenya.  The equipment is now there in the hands of our Rotarian partners in these countries.  Now we urgently need to raise the rest of the funds necessary to send our eager and prepared Interact representatives of our Rotary and Interact districts there to do their work.
 
 
 
Your club’s scholarship donations should be made payable to Interact District 5495, and should be sent, as soon as possible, to PDG Jeanie Morgan, Interact District Treasurer, P.O. Box 1807, Chandler, AZ 85224.  If you have questions, contact District Interact Chair, PDG Art Harrington, arthts@msn.com, or call him at (928) 245-0411.
