Congratulations to the Rotary Club of Windsor (1918) on the approval of their global grant application for a project in Tanzania. Michelle White is the primary international contact for a $44,800 grant for a Vocational Training Team (Part 2) to train traditional birth attendants and health care professionals in rural Tanzania. The Team Leader is Windsor (1918) Rotarian Andrea Cassidy, as it was for Part 1 in Fall 2023. They will work with 6 medical professionals from the Tanzanian NGO PANETA to train 118 people who will then be better equipped to work with women giving birth in their communities and facilities. The primary host contact is Timothy Massawe from the Rotary Club of Hai Kilimanjaro. The other two team members are midwives Andrea Robertson, working in Newfoundland, and Tess Walter, working in Ottawa. The training takes place from October 24 - November 9, 2024.
