Dickinson Rotarians' literacy project continues to expand
 
One of the Dickinson Rotary Club's literacy projects is reading to preschool students in their classrooms and giving each child a copy of the book. This year a dozen Rotarians read to 216 three- and four-year-olds in 14 classrooms at both Head Start and at Dickinson's Early Childhood Program! Head Start teachers selected "Pierre the Penguin" and ECP teachers selected "I Love Colors." The project is organized each year by Rotarian Deb Barros, pictured with one of the classes.

Mano a Mano International

Mano a Mano and the Rotary Clubs of Duluth Harbortown & Fergus Falls invite you to join us on a trip to Cochabamba, Bolivia.  Through this unique travel experience you will meet Andean indigenous communities with meager material resources and witness their determination to improve life for their children. We will visit Rotary projects such as medical clinics, water projects and building improvements to a school, all made possible through a collaboration between Rotary District 5580, Mano a Mano, and the Bolivian Government, with the local communities leveraging support through their donated labor and commitment to community building.
