Service in Action

By Winfred A. Mensah, Chair of the West Africa Project Fair (WAPF) Host Organizing Committee

On behalf of the Host Organizing Committee for the 12th West Africa Project Fair (WAPF), I take this opportunity to invite you to attend our 2017 event in the city of Accra, Ghana,   4-11 October.

We will have nearly 50 clubs from six West African districts showcasing  a total of 200 small and large humanitarian project proposals. Together with our friends from East Africa, we will display numerous humanitarian projects categorized in six project categories. Through immersion and community visits, international visitors will experience local priorities first hand and build partnerships with local clubs to support projects that will make a significant community improvements.

As you arrive to Accra for the WAPF, you will be greeted by Rotary friends. You will share meals, experiences, and exchange ideas with nearly 1,227 Rotarians.  You will learn with wonder and experience the Ghanaian proverbial hospitality, leaving inspired to do more through Rotary.

The 2017 Fair promises to be a very exciting and memorable experience. Rotarians in the city of Accra and the entire District 9102 eagerly await our visiting friends. International visitors can register through Howard Tours and local clubs interested in showcasing their project proposals may register online. Please contact me for more information or if you have any questions.
