Dear Dr. Willand
DONATIONS FOR BAZAAR: SCULPTURES, PAINTINGS, FRUIT AND CAKE
On behalf of the Governing Body and persons with disabilities in the programmes of the Stellenbosch Work Centre, I hereby wish to express our sincere gratitude and appreciation towards you and members of your club, especially Mrs. Marleen Pascke, Zelda Ellis and Mrs. Silberbauer for the above donations and your overall involvement in the Centre’s bazaar.
Your organisation’s valuable support is not only a gesture of extreme goodwill but also reflects an active interest in the well being and improvement of the quality of life of persons with disabilities in our community.
I could assure you that it definitely contributed towards the successful attainment of the objectives set for the activity.
Thank you once more.

From Technopark, cyclists doing the 100 km route go through Stellenbosch to tackle the climb over Helshoogte. Descend through Pniel past Boschendal to the T-junction (be careful on the railway lines). Cyclists will now turn left onto the R45 and go towards Paarl. Cross the N1 bridge and continue along the Agterpaarl road before taking the R44 towards Wellington. Turn left onto the R312 and continue to the Fisantekraal (“fruit sellers”) 4-way stop, taking the R304 all the way into Stellenbosch. Return to the venue via Spier and the Annandale Road.
Due to roadworks on the R101 (Old Paarl Rd) the Medum route has been diverted over Helshoogte Pass, onto the R45 past Simondium, left towards Klapmuts and the South on the R44 towards Stellenbosch, Spier and the Annandale Road.

Rhine Ruhr (PTY) LTD and the Rotary Club of Stellenbosch have partnered to help Youth Outreach ready a night shelter to accommodate girl street children. The managing director of Rhine Ruhr (PTY) LTD, Mark van der Walt, generously donated goods to the value of R30 000. The donation included 16 double bunk beds, bedding, curtains, a bookshelf and a personal computer.
The Rotary Club of Stellenbosch brought the donor and a social worker at Youth Outreach together to discuss what was needed to open the shelter for girls. Youth Outreach is an organisation that has been helping street children in Stellenbosch since 1997. Until July 2010 Youth Outreach offered accommodation mainly to boys at their facility on the corner of Bird and Bell Streets in Stellenbosch. The donation from Rhine Ruhr (PTY) LTD has ensured that Youth Outreach’s second facility, also in Bell Street, is reaching out to girl children who live on the streets in Stellenbosch.
