Congratulations to Perrysburg Rotarian Chris Vogel for receiving a special recognition award from the Rotary Club of Columbo in Sri Lanka. Thanks to his grant efforts, ten villages have reverse osmosis water filtration systems.
 
As President Alison Frye highlighted in her weekly Sunday Night Message, "It takes a lot of knowledge and patience to successfully submit a Rotary Global Grant but in his own words Chris says, “I was a high-ranking executive for most of my life but I’ve had more fun working on grants for Rotary. Over the years I’ve helped with over $1,000,000 in funding.” Chris, we tease you a lot, but we are very proud and inspired by your efforts. Thank you."  
 
It is always an honor to see the hard work of Rotarians come to life and receive updates regarding the global projects.  To learn more about this particular grant, click here.
