Having been involved in the preparation of MG # 58669, allow me to say that two Nigerien women were sent to Bangladesh a few months ago to be trained in Microcredit Management. Deborah Linhorn (RC La Jolla Sunrise - D-5340) and team members were scheduled to come to Niger in November 2006 to discuss the implementation of the project and we still expecting her to come. 2006-2007 President Kabo (RC Niamey) and I we will make sure all concerned parties are updated. The Matching Grant is not completed and it can be considered as ongoing.

A progress report has just recently been filed by Gaston Kabo in Niger to Rotary International. Gaston Kaba emailed that in January they sent the Intermediate Report to Katherine Stewart. Then, at the beginning of March 2008, she requested that they send the Report Supplement for Revolving Loan Grants Form as well. On the week of Mar-31 they will hold a meeting with the RC of Niamey and the NGO Bunkasa to complete all the necessary documents that will allow the release the remaining US$14,100 for the second credit group.
