The Rotary Club of Prince Albert in partnership with the Ripple Effect Program, D5550 World Community Service Foundation, CRCID, Rotary Club of Gualan and the municipality of Gualan have financed the construction of 2 classrooms, and the refurbishing of 6 washrooms at the all girls school Blanca Hilda in Gualan, Guatemala.
 
Construction will begin this month! The school was in desperate need of 2 more classrooms to accomodate an ever increasing school population. This school principal has worked at Blanca Hilda for nearly 30 years, and the students and staff have taken very good care of their facility, even fundraising themselves to purchase new doors for the classrooms! The washrooms were in need of repair, with most toilets not working. The construction of the new classrooms and the upgrade to the washrooms will be greatly appreciated by the more than 450 students and teachers at this school.
