Grant approved to support public health and nutrition project in Togo
The Rotary clubs of Kpalimé, Togo (District 9100) and Paris-Porte d’Orléans, France (District 1660) received a global grant to provide equipment and materials to supply a pediatric health center and establish a training program on public health and nutrition in Kpalimé. The center will offer preventive and curative services focusing on eye health, hearing, parasites, malaria, AIDS, and dental hygiene. The sponsoring clubs will work closely with a nongovernmental organization, Soutien Enfants Togo, which will help to ensure the long-term sustainability of the project. This project aligns with two areas of focus: disease prevention and treatment, and maternal and child health.
