Thanks to the success of our let there be hope 2010 event, Glimmer is now able to fund all of the projects needed in the community of Robit. Glimmer is using its unique integrated community development approach to help the people of Robit. Glimmer has just begun construction on the development plan for Robit, which includes the following projects: five middle and elementary school classroom buildings, four high school classroom buildings, a library, a health center with inpatient and outpatient buildings, 28 hand dug wells, and a deep borehole well with multiple distribution points. In addition, 500 to 600 individuals in Robit will receive microfinance loans to help them build businesses and work towards financial independence.
