    Hi Stellenbosch Rotary and Rotaract,

    I’m just writing to say thank you for the warm wishes for our Haven of Hope Fundraiser, and to let you know it was a great success! We raised R 8,000 for Haven of Hope to buy a soundproof partition, and it was a great night.

    I’m including some photos: The first photo is of my Rotary club president Bob and two other members showing the Zulu love letter pins I gave them during my speech about Stellenbosch at one of our Rotary meetings.

    The next photo shows me, 2 of my sisters and some of the African dancers we had for the fundraising event.

    Best wishes,
    Sue

    The Stellenbosch Rotary Club joined in the festive celebration of Rotary International’s 105th birthday which was held at the V&A Waterfront in Cape Town on Tuesday, 23rd of February.

    To celebrate the event,  prominent landmarks around the world were illuminated with the End Polio Now message.

    In Cape Town, the Kick Polio Out of Africa awareness campaign was launched with the symbolic kicking of a soccer ball signed by Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu. By putting in the highest bid in a fundraising auction, Stellenbosch club members Barry and Vanessa Eason became the proud owners of the ball, which will be coming home to them after it has travelled through 22 polio-affected countries en route to the RI Convention in Montréal, Québec, Canada, in June.

    See how Hans Vonk from the Ajax soccer team symbolically kicks the ball to launch the Kick Polio out of Africa campaign:

    Apart from its international significance, Stellenbosch was also very proud to induct 3 new members in front of the Old Port Captain’s Office in the waterfront - Cape Town’s illuminated landmark. A warm welcome to Jaco, Laurika and Rene.
