In Joyabaj, high in the Sierra de Chuacús mountains, the Milwaukee Rotarians were meeting with hospital administrators and members of the Vista Hermosa Rotary Club from Guatemala City. They discussed implementation of a public health program to take advantage of a new water purification project.
The day before, the Milwaukeeans had inspected a prototype of that project, which included $41,000 in Rotary funding, and found it to be working well. For that reason, it will be scaled up to provide potable water to the entire community.
