The Rotary Club of Great Missenden has successfully completed a
mini-project. At the request of RC of Bombay, 104 copies were sent
straight away as the kids would benefit most from their current school
term. RC of Hoddesdon and RC Club of Misbourne Matins from our
neighbouring District 1090 contributed. RC of Bombay covered the local
costs (customs clearance, delivery etc.). TOTAL cost:est. £625.
In
the picture, a copy of the book is being officially handed over by
President of the RC of Bombay, Nandan Damani, to Neeta Pradhan of the
NGO collaborating with their school's project.

As an additional project, Great
Missenden are planning to send another 300 copies for delivery in May
2010 with possible support from the District Simplified Grant
(Foundation), other clubs (RC of Amwell, and RC of Wendover & Dist)
and organisations (Ranfurly Charitable Services). Click here for background and further information on both the projects.
