DIK
On Thursday next week – 26th July, we will be getting a delivery of 500 school desks and 500 chairs. We are also scheduled to load a container to Vanuatu and prepare for a Timor unit the following Tuesday. We need some arms and legs to give the regular volunteers some help. Half of the desks and chairs will go directly into a container for Tanzania but the balance will have to go into the store – somewhere!. Please ask your members for some help on either the 26th July or/and 31st July. Caroline Chisholm – Good work done by Rotarians
