Rotary Club in Action


These ladies live in a village that is affected by annual flooding: every year, their village is completely cut off from the rest of the state by flood waters. Their village becomes like an island, and sometimes they don't have enough food to last for the entire duration of the flood. These lovely ladies were telling me that during the floods, the Cuddalore (a nearby city) Rotary Club brings them food by boat. I told them that my grandfather is very involved in the Rotary Club in the US. I was so proud! They told me to tell him "thank you".
