Welcome from our Mission Director


Welcome teammates to the 7th annual Guatemala City Rotaplast mission.

Thank you for donating your time and valued efforts to this worthy humanitarian endeavor. High praise and a BIG thank you to our Rotary partners, Club Rotario de la AscensiĆ³n of Guatemala City who have done much of the heavy "lifting" over these many years of service above self!

Well over 500 children have received multiple operations for cleft lip/palate defects, along with genetic counseling, lab analysis and case prevention at no cost. Our District-5130 has formed strong bonds of friendship with the local community that we highly value. We look forward to another successful mission with their help. Thanks for sharing our passion.

In these troubled times of war and religious conflict, projects such as these may be the best outreach between different cultures and other countries.

Yours in Rotary service, Frank Leake, Mission Director
