Best wishes from Thirsting to Serve (cont'd)
Tony Medina, District Water Chair for Honduras
If you look at this picture of Tony's head and superimpose it on the country of Honduras, you will see there is an arrow pointing to San Pedro Sula and right to him. HE IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! He can provide the knowledge of how to navigate with Rotary in Honduras, as we seek to create our own project. I hope he will make it back to the USULA Rotary Club in time for our meeting in San Pedro Sula on our last night of the trip. Tony's background makes him our go to person- He has worked with Pure water for the World, and with the Honduran Government in a program funded by US AID. He navigated through a 3H project this year in the mountains behind San Pedro Sula. He is the Assistant District Governor for the La Ceiba Rotary Club, and helped form its newest club- the Choloma Rotary Club. He is fluent in English, and received his BS degree from Agricultural Studies and a minor in Information Studies from SE Missouri State. His wife and he own Threads and Trims Supplies. He is an expert in the import-export business- working with US AID in FIDE (Foundation for Investment and Development of Exports) Tony began working in Rotary as a charter member of his interact club when he was 14, following in the steps of his father (40 years in USULA Club San Pedro Sula) and his grandfather who was a charter member of the Santa Rosa de Copan club. Wow! If he is what we are going to find connection-wise in Honduras..it will be an awesome trip
