Two Rotarians from the Wadsworth, Ohio Rotary Club, Dan Selby and Karl Elsass, along with two Rotarians from the Brunswick, Ohio Rotary Club, Stan Socha and Jack Young, recently had the opportunity to partner with Salud Del Sol to assist with the installation of two solar lighting systems developed by the Solar Center in the small village of Sabana Grande, Nicaragua.
“Our experience was amazing, there is a huge potential and opportunity for renewable solar energy in developing countries”, according to Dan Selby. Selby and Elsass also had the opportunity to live with host families in the rural villages during part of their visit.
“We are very thankful for continued work and support that Salud Del Sol has done for the people of Sabana Grande. Their mission is much like that of Rotary International with an ultimate goal of making the world a better place for everyone to live and enjoy,” said Selby.
