World Community Service Reports
by Matt Bown

The World Service Committee is pleased to report continuing support of the Rotary/Agros International Healthy Start program in Guatemala.  Our Club first participated in this program in its inaugural year during 2020.  We joined 11 other clubs from Washington, California, Colorado, Guatemala, and China.  An interesting fact is this is the first project that a China club (Macau) was permitted to participate in outside of China.  Club 29 has committed to continue participation in the next phase of the program which should be funded in 2022.
The Healthy Start program is operating in the Ixil region of Guatemala which was severely disadvantaged during the decades long Guatemalan civil war.   The program is focused on reducing chronic child malnutrition.  The primary strategies of the program include:
• Establish a network of Community Health Brigadistas to actively work in the villages to provide and   promote health measures
• Provide prenatal care to pregnant women and early childhood care to children, such as immunizations
• Provide nutritional supplements in villages where food scarcity occurs
• Increase food production from local gardens for both local use and for agribusiness
