Service from Peru to Mill Valley
By: Ruta Casabianca
Bob Roberts signed up for the adventure of a lifetime in 1962 as one of the first Peace Corps Volunteers to travel to the highlands of Peru to learn and advise potato farmers and help organize cooperatives. He and his wife Betty, whom he met during those auspicious two years, have continued their service and with the Rotary Foundation, US and Peruvian Rotary clubs, supported the construction of 145 greenhouses. Thus, a life-long partnership begins in Peru in 1962 between Peace Corps and Rotary
