Today, the Copperas Cove Rotary Club was honored to welcome Rotary District 5870 Central Texas District Governor Jeff Coleman for his official club visit!
Jeff shared insights on how our club is doing, how we can strengthen our work, and how we can make an even greater impact in the communities we serve. He also updated us on Project Tumaini, District 5870’s district-wide project focused on bringing clean water to schools in Tanzania, which we have already started supporting.
🌍 Tumaini means “hope” in Swahili.
Imagine a child beginning each school day by walking to a muddy pond to collect water shared with livestock. For children in Tanzania’s Mkalama District, access to safe, clean drinking water can make a life-changing difference.
Through the installation of WaterPoint Systems, Project Tumaini aims to bring clean water to as many as 20 schools, helping create healthier environments where children can learn, grow, and thrive.
This project is a powerful reminder that Rotary’s impact reaches far beyond our own communities. When we come together in service, we can help change lives and create a brighter future for generations to come.
Thank you, Jeff Coleman, for visiting our club, encouraging us to think bigger about our impact, and sharing this meaningful opportunity to bring hope through clean water. We are proud to be part of the Rotary family and its commitment to Service Above Self! 💧🤝
