Cataract Surgery Project
Rotary Club of Rangpur, Bangladesh - District 3280
|
|
 District 6060 has partnered with D6710 in Western Kentucky and D6040 in Northwestern Missouri to be international sponsors of this project.
Our project partner is the RC of Rangpur in Bangladesh, D3280. This is a club of 56 members, chartered in 1978, and very active in many projects in its region.
At right, Rangpur Rotarians team up with Rotarians from Dhaka and another local club to distribute winter clothes to the poor people of the region. |
|
 The Rotary Club of Rangpur has also sponsored two other Rotary Clubs in the surrounding area, both of which are flourishing.
At left is a picture of Rangpur Rotarians recognizing the completion of a Concentrated Language Encounter (CLE) Literacy project to teach these techniques to teachers of registered non-governmental schools. |

Our Rotary Foundation will spend nearly $12,000 to fund 320 eye surgeries and to purchase a surgical microscope, such as the one used at right. This equipment will allow the local ophthalmologists to perform a higher quality of cataract operation with better outcomes for the patients. |
