The Aquabox Boys Print E-mail
Written by Chalmers Cursley   

aquaboxboyswendover.jpgSandra Maizels, a member of the Rotary Club of Wendover and District issued a Charity Challenge by giving a talk on Aquabox to a small group of boys at Davenies School where she used to teach. Harry, Graeme and Daniel raised money for Aquabox by organising a Bring and Buy of children’s DVDs. 

They also publicised what was needed to fill the boxes and organised a collection. Beaconsfield Rotary Club provided two boxes to be filled, and the boys filled a third and sponsored five more.  A stupendous first effort at fundraising which they thoroughly enjoyed. Having acquired the taste for it, they have the headmaster’s permission to take part in Thanks for Life.  Watch this space!

A Thought...

glennestessl.jpg"One of the most wonderful things about Rotary is that it allows you to be part of something so much larger than yourself."

Glenn E. Estess Snr., RI President 2005.

Nothing Changes...

paul-harris.jpg"I would like to think that the pioneering days of Rotary have only just begun. There are just as many new things to be done as ever there were. Kaleidoscopic changes are taking place, many of them without our will. Even to hang on to the fringe of this fast-changing world is about all most of us can do. Rotary simply must continue to pioneer or be left in the rear of progress."

Paul Harris - The Rotarian February 1945
