Solar Light Project
Solar Light Project
Two years ago, when Roseville Rotarian Aanne Atomssa went the Salaale Zone to inaugurate a water well the elders told her about the lack of electricity in the area.
Aanne worked with her club, Roseville Rotary, and along with donations from Stillwater Sunrise, North St. Paul-Maplewood-Oakdale, Lakeville, and Prior Lake Rotary Clubs, plus a Rotary District 5960 matching grant. Aanne was able to return this past November to the village with a solution.
 
Aanne distributed solar light bulb/lanterns for two hundred twenty-five farmers/ per household for four villages in Salaale Zone Garbaguurachaa. The project will provide lights for the community who are not able to get electric light and reside in a rural part of Ethiopia. The light will help their school children to get enough study time for their schoolwork. 
 
In addition to the Solar Lights Aanne distributed over 600 Days for Girls feminine hygiene kits to the community schools in Ethiopia.

Jenny Hedal introduced the speaker for the day, the Superintendent of Roseville Schools, Dr. Aldo Sicoli. 
 
Aldo’s reporting covered two basic topics,
1.  Roseville’s response to COVID-19
2.  The progress with the building program from the recent levy.
 
Due to the COVID-19, they have initiated distance learning, in school learning, blended learning programs all in accordance with the recommendations of the health authorities.
There are two break points they pay particular attention to: Covid infections of 30/10,000 which bring a few restrictions and Covid infections of 50/10,000 which requires remote learning only.  Within these programs and the limitations there are a whole array of options available to students and teachers.
 
Simultaneously with this change in the learning programs are Child Care being provided, Meals being prepared and delivered and special ed considerations.
 
Regarding the construction progress, it is well underway with most of the project being completed or nearly completed.  Most of the remaining work is on the Fairview location where
it turned out to be more expensive to repair the facility than to build it all from scratch.  Thus, they are building from scratch and that will likely be completed next year some time.
 
After this Aldo answered an array of questions.
 
Next week the presentation will be by District Governor Ed Marek and will be Virtual Only.
