Expats in Panama Giving Back to the Community

rotary boquete panamaOne of the many joys of moving to Panama are finally having the time to do the things you want to do, when you want to do them. People who move to Panama bring with them years of experience in business, teaching, photography, and other endeavors. They love giving back to the community by sharing their experiences.

Teri Novak is the perfect example. She comes from a background as a business owner which requires organizational skills. She puts her knowledge to work by volunteering with the Boquete ROTARY.  In the video Teri mentioned that Adriel was able to overcome his fear of math by studying math at the Khan Academy.   Teri meant to say that Adriel spent 700 minutes, not 700 hours of study.

The Rotary has many different programs to help Panamanians including helping children learn, build houses, provide food for the needy and more.  The mission of Rotary International is to provide service to others, promote integrity, and advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace through its fellowship of business, professional, and community leaders.
