Vanuatu Earthquake - Help Rotary Assist the People of Vanuatu!

You have most likely heard about the earthquake that hit Vanuatu on Tuesday. Vanuatu is part of District 9910, and we have been trying to establish communication with our Rotarians on the ground where possible, to assess the needs for an immediate response. It has been difficult.

There are two options for supporting this effort, and both ways, you can be sure that the funds will help directly:

1. Give a donation to the District 9910 Fund (NO tax deductibility, therefore suitable for club and district donations, for immediate funding availability), and / or

2. Give a donation to the Rotary Foundation Disaster Response Fund (WITH tax deductibility, therefore suitable for individuals, in support of a future Disaster Response Grant application that is being prepared based on the needs identified on the ground in Vanuatu).

Christmas sponsorship of Shepherds Arms Children's Home Bohol (SACH)

Thanks to everyone who has made a donation. We have raised $850 and this has been paid via Dr Rizsa at Humanitarian Projects International (HPI) who will make sure the children at SACH receive our gifts for Christmas.

We have also received a Christmas Card from the home which I am sharing with you.

Once again, thank you for your compassion and commitment to making a positive impact in the lives of these children.
