LIVE!!!!! From Lusaka, Zambia!Brunswick Rotary Club presents
Lonnie Hackett, Healthy Learners (formerly Healthy Kids/Brighter Future)
March 15, 2021 12:00PM
Brunswick Rotary Club met Lonnie Hackett on March 31, 2014 when Lonnie was a Senior at Bowdoin College. He brought us an opportunity to help the poorest children in Lusaka through an innovative program which trained classroom teachers as front-line health care workers.
Twelve clubs in District 7780 supported this program, now called Healthy Learners, and it has grown from serving 12,000 school-age children and will soon scale to serve a million children. The Rotary Club of Ipswich Massachusetts and Rotary Club of South Berwick-Eliot joined the Brunswick Rotary Club as International partners for a total of five Global Grants.
Recently honored with a Donald MacRae Peace Award from Rotary Zone 32, Lonnie was also named Forbes 2021 “30 under 30” in the area of social impact.
Join us on Zoom! Noon on March 15, 2021.
