| Joanna knows President-Elect Stan Edwards and Kim Rogers from volunteering in Guatemala. She is Director of Global Relations & Secretary of Water4LifeGlobal. Low-tech clean water filters are provided to communities, currently working in Guatemala. Their clean water initiatives include the distribution of water filter technology, collaboration on biological water treatment plans and contributions towards the reforestation of Lake Atitlán. The greater vision of Water 4 Life Global is nothing less than the availability of clean drinking water that is easily accessible and sustained for many years. Their team envisions a life free of water transmitted diseases, water toxins, malnutrition, and environmental damage, in a country that maintains each of these issues as very viable threats to the communities and ecosystems. A new greywater pilot is underway in Guatemala at Lake Atitlan. Since clean water is a major focus area for Rotary International, Joanna's membership is a great fit for our club! In addition to her commitment to service, she enjoys hiking, kayaking and photography. We welcome Joanna to our Rotary e-club of Houston!
