Bhotechaur Secondary School Textbook and Science Lab Project

During a visit by a delgation of Bright Futures Foundation Board and supporters to Bhotechaur in 2006, the principal of the Secondary School close to the Bhotechaur Clinic asked Bright Futures Foundation Board members for assistance. The principal was interested in supplying the science lab and library of their newly constructed school. Although the Shree Saraswati Higher Secondary School was recently completed, the government had not provided additional funding to fully equip the school. The modest request of $3,164 (US) would provide textbooks, reference books, shelving, microscopes and other science equipment for the eager students.

Bright Futures Board member Jill Gleysteen took a personal interest in this project and pulled in the support of Rogue Gateway Rotary, Grants Pass Rotary, Bright Futures Foundation and generous individuals to raise the funds requested. The following year, Bright Futures Board members were privileged to see the books in place and the lab equipment being used by grateful students.
