Rotarians raise funds for Haiti



VOLUNTEERS pounded the streets of Witney to collect money for people devastated by the Haiti earthquake.


On Saturday, Witney Rotary Club collected £2,500 from outside Sainsbury’s, in Witan Way.


Collector John Milnes said: “The situation in Haiti is horrendous.


“Nobody can fail to be moved by the scenes of distress, confusion and utter hopelessness.


“This appeal is crucial to keep aid moving into the country and save more lives.


“It’s not just the earthquake that causes damage to lives – the aftermath can be equally devastating.”


Saturday’s collection was part of national Rotary Club appeal for donations.

 Networking session fosters Future Vision partnerships


By Donna Polydoros 
Rotary International News -- 18 January 2010 

After a long day of Future Vision Pilot Training, district leaders were ready to put their knowledge to work by swapping humanitarian project ideas with their peers.

“This is the way to do it. This is going to open up communications for leaders from pilot districts and then do the same for the rest of RI,” said Stephen May, governor-elect of District 7930 (parts of Massachusetts and New Hampshire, USA).
