The Buffalo Project started with an MG between Glenville (7190) & Lahore Garrison (3270) Rotary Clubs. Cow and calf are given to needy candidates selected by the Rotary Community Corps in the village of Kujer near Lahore. 30% of the revenue from milk, calves, and meat is given back to the RCC to assist with projects in the community. So far with this income the RCC has helped the village school and built a Computer lab for the community. Members of the Lahore Garrison Rotary Club and myself went to check on the recipients and their animals.
This project has been such a success that a bigger version of it is now in the works. District 7930 has donated $10,000 to this next MG.
