Club hears about Rotary project in Nepal

Rotarians David and Diane Waterhouse from The Entrance have recently spoken to the Rotary Club of Woy Woy about their work with children in Nepal.

They spoke in an online conference about their involvement in a Rotary Australia World Community Service project to contribute to the welfare and education of a group children in Nepal.

They described their work converting a shipping container into a kitchen for the preparation of meals for the children at the Shree Kamala Higher Secondary school, and invited the Woy Woy club to help fund the project.

The Waterhouses said the objectives of the project were "to assist with the primary school education of the children of the lower castes in the Sindhuli district of Nepal".

"The assistance will be in the form of providing school uniforms, books and those items required for junior schooling.

"The assistance will also include the provision of one meal per school day."

They said a donation of $75 covered the costs of one child for 12 months.
