Welcome to many of our Mount Martha Traders who have been subscribed to our Bulletin publication from this week! And thank you again to you all for your support of the Village Bauble display during Christmas.
What an inspirational meeting we had last week!
We heard from President Dave Wilson (Frankston Sunrise) about the Prostate Probe for Frankston hospital, a very worthy cause.
Next we heard from Rotaractors President Lily, Charlotte and Daisy about their amazing trip to Nepal.
We had visitors from Mount Eliza, Somerville Tyabb, Rosebud Rye, Frankston Sunrise and our Balcombe Grammar Interact Club!
First Sandra Fiedeldy who accompanied the Rotaractors gave an introduction and then these young people shared their stories and we went on a journey with them and saw the impact that Rotaract and Rotary has on a global level.
They shared the projects and passion they had been involved with from murals, community gardens and glass (spectacle) frames. They developed strong bonds with Nepali Rotaractors and no one was prouder than our regular visitor from Nepal, Rotarian Raj Rijal.
The big take away was that it doesn’t always take much money to make a difference and the power of community.
We also presented the Peninsula Rotaract club with a donation of toothbrushes and toothpaste.
