Ryan Klataske Ambassadorial Scholar - Tuesday, July 14, 2009
Has filed his first report. It seems so long ago that I stood in front of Rotarians in Atchison and enthusiastically accepted a Rotary Ambassadorial Scholarship. Finally, after just over two years since that day, I am beginning my ‘ambassadorial’ experience in the southern African country of Namibia. Before I go on, I want to sincerely thank District 5710 for this opportunity and all the Rotarians who help to make this scholarship possible. In particular, I greatly appreciate the immense support of the Manhattan Rotary Clubs and the many members who have encouraged, mentored, and done so much for me in many aspects of my life--in and beyond Rotary. I am very grateful to serve as your ambassador.
Check out his blog under links for up to date information on his research.

The Four Way Test
|
 |
|
For five decades Rotarians have been using The 4-Way Test as a practical yardstick in their business, community, and personal affairs. The 4-Way Test, you will note, does not provide answers. It asks questions which the user must answer. Thousands of Rotarians have used it and shared it with others. Millions of copies have been distributed to students and business associates. The Test has been carved into granite monuments, displayed on billboards, written into labor contracts, printed on wrapping paper and umbrellas, and has been the theme of countless essay contests and addresses.
1. Is it the truth?
2. Is it fair to all concerned?
3. Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
4. Will it be beneficial to all concerned?

Rotary Project

The Water Project that Manhattan Rotary Club partnered with the Rotary Club of St. Louis and the Rotary Club of Mengo, Uganda and District Designated Funds from Districts 5710 and 6060 has been completed. This was made possible through the Matching Grant program of the Rotary Foundation. The project funded a Water Catchment System and Dental Equipment for a Medical/Dental Clinic in Buloba Village, Uganda.
This included the installation of a rainwater catchment system of guttering and storage cans to greatly increase the quantity of clean water the medical clinic and village has available. The project also includes solar heating and lighting, and equipment for a dental clinic all of which are aimed at reducing child and adult mortality and improving their quality of life. Please visit
