100 Shelter Boxes

Last year Roy Sheargold was ‘decorated’ with an addition to his existing Paul Harris award.

Thousands of bed nets to prevent malaria were sent through Roy’s efforts. He received “more than a little help” from club members and his Rotary contacts in Canada. Click the video clip below to see immediate past president Werner Beeh presenting Roy with the award, then Lionel Arnold in the comfort of his home talks about this tremendous project.

Not one to rest on his laurels, Roy this year has obtained the services of General Peter Cosgrove to spearhead a fundraising to buy 100 (that’s the target!) Shelter Boxes.

STOP PRESS! Some shelter boxes have already been sent to aid the Victorian Bushfire Appeal.
