ROTARY CLUB
The Rotary Club has become an important partner since 2005. Their interest in helping the region of Agadez, Niger, led to the founding of the first Rotary Club in the Sahara in Agadez. Our Niger representative became the founding president and Leslie Clark the founding International Service director.

Since our initial contact with the Ojai Rotary Club and through board member, Randy Strong of the Westlake Village Sunrise Rotary Club, our partnership has expanded and more than 50 international clubs have contributed to Niger projects managed by the Nomad Foundation.
