Singlets for AIDS children
The Rotary Club of Umina is knitting singlets for children of AIDS victims in South Africa.
The singlets will be forwarded to the Rotary Club of Port Alfred on the east coast of South Africa and distributed by those members to local hospitals and baby clinics.
"Last week Malcolm and Carole Christie from the Rotary Club of Port Alfred visited our local area and met up with one of our knitting groups at Peninsula Village Retirement Centre, Umina," said Umina club public relations officer Mr Geoff Melville.
"We have several members of the Inner Wheel Club of Port Hacking who have been knitting the singlets and beanies for nearly two years and their representative, Margaret Underhill, brought up another supply for our next shipment," he said.
