Warm Greetings from San Antonio! In the last week of August, I traveled to the lone star state to present about Malaria Partners International to the large club. There were Rotary members from other clubs and the current district Governor and the incoming Governor attended despite busy schedules. I was also joined by Dr. Larry Schlesinger President and CEO of Texas Bio Med Research. Dr. Schlesinger is very interested in Malaria Partners International’s work to eradicate Malaria. He was so impressed in our work and I convinced him to join Rotary and submitted his application. The San Antonio club is very interested in collaborating with Malaria Partners International. On Malaria Partners International’s behalf, I asked them to be our partners for the Ethiopian malaria project which was very well received. At the end of my presentation, the president handed me a donation for $1,000. I was also presented a proclamation signed by the Mayor. This was a very special day for our mission.
