The Group Study Exchange – GSE
team – from Buenos Aries, Argentina gave a
presentation highlighting their country and
discussed with Beaver Dam Rotary members as well as
Columbus and Horicon members their individual
professions and their reasons for coming to the
United States. All of the members of this team work
with people with disabilities. The five member team
was lead by a Rotary member from Argentina who also
works with people with disabilities. They shared
with members their love and aspirations for those
they care for. The team arrived in Wisconsin on
April 13th and will be touring different
cities and sharing their program with many different
groups until their departure on May 10th.
This GSE team has a
real passion for what they are trying to accomplish
in their country and learn from agencies in the
United States in the field of disabilities. Each
member is specialized in a different facet of
disabilities. They bring a well rounded, complete
representation of professionals in this field.
After their
presentation, the team took a tour of Green Valley
Enterprises. They asked many wonderful questions of
the different department heads and learned quite a
bit about their agency. GVE staff learned much from
them as well. It was a great exchange of
information. GSE is an international Rotary program
that consists of one Rotarian as team leader and a
small group of non Rotarian professionals who visit
other countries to exchange ideas and learn from
those countries.
