Stories
Guatemala
This was a huge undertaking for  Flory and all of her helpers and medical colleagues, as you all can understand. It is something they had never done before. It is a huge step forward for health care for the people that we and they are serving. I am so grateful that it went well, and they are all inspired by what occurred this past weekend.
 
I'm thinking these pictures  should certainly build excitement for our team to start planning a January 2023 trip, if everything continues to improve as it has been!
 
I have to say, one of our patients went to a hospital this weekend for an operation that she had been waiting for over a year and couldn't have it because she tested positive for covid. She was totally asymptomatic-and very disappointed.
 
There are also patient stories to tell you, and there will be more pages coming, but I wanted to get this much out for you to start seeing how it went.
 
GMRP sends thanks to everyone who has donated for our Continuing Care project, our past and future mission trips and this mission that just happened. They all work together to serve the needy people of this area. 
 
I have passed all your messages on to Flory that you have sent me.

2022 Midwest PETS
Maureen O’Leary-Guth, our incoming President, and Jenne Hohn, President Nominee, attended PETS from March 4 - 6. Here they are pictured with District Governor-elect Mike Phillips. PETS has been an exciting opportunity to exchange ideas with fellow Rotarians. The weekend’s events also included officer training and inspirational speakers. What a great event!
Spring Giving Drive - Diapers
Loop Spring GIF by audreyobscura
We are partnering with the Ozaukee Nonprofit Center this Spring for our Spring Giving Drive.  Their greatest need is diapers. They are also in need of baby formula. The diaper sizes they could use the most are: the smallest sizes, and the biggest sizes to include pull-ups.
 
If you prefer to write a check, please make the check payable to Ozaukee Nonprofit Center and bring to a Tuesday meeting. Jenne will deliver checks with the diapers/formula collected.
 
The final day for the Diaper Drive is Tuesday, April 19.
 
Thank you for your help!
