The Rotary Club of Ames has partnered with the Rotary Club of Same, Tanzania on four Water and Sanitation, Hygiene (WASH) global grant projects since 2012.   In total, over $1.25 million has bee contributed to build clean, sustainable water systems for villages in the Same District of Tanzania.  Hy - Vee, Inc. has been a vital corporate partner in all four projects.   
 
We are currently working on our fifth WASH global grant for the Tanzania village of Menamu, and Hy - Vee, Inc. is once again a vital partner, donating $100,000 toward this project.  
 
Thank you!  Thank you!  Thank you!  To Hy - Vee, Inc. for your continued support for providing clean water to those most in need.
