 Soke Rotary Club of District 2440 Turkey
is looking for a project partner to match a grant with the Rotary Foundation of Rotary International.
Soke, a town located in the province of Aydin, Turkey, has a total population of 80,000 and 300,000 people with its surrounding villages. It has a large agricultural land and it is one of the biggest cotton producing area of Turkey.
The 24 members of the Soke Rotary Club, consisting of 19 Paul Harris Fellow member, 1 Benefactor and 5 PHSM, have been providing services to this area for the last 22 years.
The government of Turkey has put forth a lot of effort to reform the education system and has started by passing a law which requires children to stay in school for 8 years rather than the required 5 years previously. The school needs to have a computer lab so that students can get introduced to the latest technologies at an earlier age.
The Soke Rotary Club has decided to establish 1 computer laboratory that will consist of 30 computers. The lab will need to have one main machine with 29 terminals. The overall cost of the labarotary is US $15,600. The Soke Rotary Club is prepared to donate US $5,200. Another US $5,200 is to be raised through partner Rotary Club and it is hoped that the Rotary Foundation can match the grant with the remaining US $5,200.
Thanking you in advance. |
