The GSE team visited the Watsamakyaram School in NakhonSrithammaraj. Tin mining in the district has left the water undrinkable. The polluted water supply is causing serious health problems for the young students at the school including black spots on their hands. The Rotary Club of Nakhonsri-Veerathai is working to help with this project. They need 300,000 baht ($8,571). The school has already raised one-third of the amount needed. The GSE team has donated $250 USD of their personal funds for the project. The Rotary Club of Troy Michigan in the USA and Rotary Club of Tongkah in Thailand has now matched this. Including a personal donation of $70 USD, we now have $820 USD or 26,945 THB. Anyone interested in donating directly to this project can make their checks payable to The Rotary Club of Nakhonsri-Veerathai and send it to PAG Asa Saligupta, 40 Moo7 T.Srakaew, A. Tasala, NakhonSrithammaraj in Thailand or PE Eileen Heasley, Troy Rotary, 190 Paragon, Troy, MI 48098 in the USA.
