Clean Up Liberia-- Liberia, Costa Rica- Rotary Club of Liberia (MG #61402);
Category: Health
This is a project to mobilize the community of Liberia, Costa Rica,
to clean up the litter that mars the community. Most of the project will
be educational, seeking to influence young Liberians in the school system
but including educational experiences for those working in community sanitation
and information dissemination for the community at large. If feasible, the
project will also include the acquisition of specially constructed litter
receptacles.

May 2007 Report: Henry expressed his disappointment that the process
of settling up a bank account in Liberia, separate from the local Rotary’s
account, is going so slowly. He hopes for an answer today.
