Loren Woods Rotary Club of Park Forest 708-957-8884 Jaipur Foot Project  Benefits land-mine amputees http://www.rotarynj.org/jaipurfoot.html/ Mentioned in the book A Century of Service:  The Story of Rotary International   Book Project To help students affected by the recent hurricanes in the Southern Gulf States, Wilbooks has set up a Hurricane Relief Book Drive. This book drive allows you to donate books to students whose schools have been affected by hurricanes Katrina and Rita. For every book purchased for these students at $1.50, Wilbooks will donate an additional book to this great cause.  Wilbooks will pay the shipping and handling for both books.  Books will be shipped directly to the affected students.   For more information on this program go to: www.wilbooks.com   `Share Your Soles` http://www.shareyoursoles.org/ Read `Our Story`.  There is also contact information on the site.  I think this would be a great opportunity for grade school and high school students. As new projects come to our attention they will be added to this list.  Forward your recommendations to the Webmaster. HOME
