SPECIAL PRESENTATION: |
TOM BRANUM, JR. from the Fisher Rotary Club told us about his club's goal to build 100 water wells in Sierra Leone, where 60% of the people do not have access to clean water. They spend 4 - 6 hours a day hauling 1.5 gallons of water for their total daily needs. Americans use 100 gallons per day. The fund- raiser is April 17th in Fishers. He shared a video with us.
