Water Best Practise Award 2009

As you may well know, Soroptimists go for Water, which is the SI/E’s mandate from 2007-2011, which encourages for better management for water resources all over the world. All clubs in Europe and Africa are inspired to initiate different projects in the area of water and sanitation.

During the 19th European Congress of SI/E in Amsterdam one project will be awarded the “Water Best Practise Award 2009”.

For the intended defined guidelines to reach the water Project, read this Newsletter,here.

6 Water projects had been completed before October 1st, 2007. There are 30 projects under The Project Exchange Pool and 32 projects under Unions and Single club in cooperation with Friendship Links that needs assistance. Many of the projects had received sponsorship, but many projects still need your assistance.

Maybe your club has a wonderful idea for a project, but is looking for a partner to assist with money or other recourses to realise the plan? Or your club is ready to offer resources and expertise, and looking for a club with a project that needs your assistance?

The Project Exchange Pool is on the SI/E Website to bring together these requests and offers. Our SI/E President likes to encourage you to become active to support water and sanitation projects. There is so much assistance needed, to overcome poverty and poor health conditions in many countries within our SI /E Federation.
