SOROPTIMIST INTERNATIONAL – PROJECT MATCHING At Spring Conference, you will be presented with three (3) Project Matching programs that need support to complete their projects to help women and girls. The Midwestern Region Board has picked projects that pertain to Education, Health and Sustainability. Here is a little information on all three projects. 1) Toilets for the Gamkalley 1 Kindergarten. This project seeks to build toilets in the Gamkalley 1 Kindergarten and sensitize the public to the necessary acquisition of healty and efficient hygienic habits. This project was proposed by the SI Club Tenere Niamey, Niger. 2) Education, Training & Empowerment for Girls. This project aims to raise awareness of the importance of girls’ education, inform rural girls about their social, economical, political and cultural rights, and fight the discrimination they face in their day-to-day life. This project was proposed by the SI Club of Nakuru, Kenya. 3) Truck Farming & Fruit Trees Plantation for Women in Tia. This project will develop truck farming and a fruit tree plantation that will be managed by the Women’s group of the Tia Village, in Mali, West Africa. More information on each project will be posted at Spring Conference and each Conference attendee will cast a vote for the project to support. The project with the most votes will be supported by a percentage of the Raffle Basket Sales at Spring conference and the Midwestern Region as a whole will make the donation. In the past, our efforts toward Project Matching focused on the projects of SI Cochabamba. We supported that effort with our Book and Jewelry Swap. You will also be able to make personal donations to the winning project which will be added to the MWR donation, if you desire. 29
