partners.

We saw a programme on Attitude on the disabled in Samoa, we made contact with several organisations to see what they might require.
They
sent a wish list through to us for wheelchairs, walker trainers etc. At this stage
the Plains Rotary Club said they would like to become involved, we managed to
source 60 plus wheelchairs & other disability equipment.
A ramp which has been built by the Rotarian's. |
Attitude
tv had asked us to keep in touch and when we told them we were going,they
said they would be keen to do a programme with us. There
were 14 people that went to Samoa and we delivered wheelchairs & school supplies.
We also built disability ramps for people who needed access to their homes. Attitude
TV is also completing a 4 minute promotional dvd for Rotary Clubs to help
promote the work we intend to continue doing in Samoa.
