GRANTS MAKE IT POSSIBLE

The Rotary Club of Lincoln purchased thirteen new storage lockers, which are installed at Khazimula Children's Centre (www.khazimula.co.za) located in Lidgetton, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.   The locker project was made possible through a matching District 7090 grant.  It has now been completed and the project report has been submitted to the District.
 
Khazimula provides a safe and loving environment for some thirty homeless children, 6-18 years. Since the centre opened in 2007, it has been home to more than 270 vulnerable children. The purpose of the new lockers is to provide the children with a secure place for their personal belongings and a sense of dignity in having their own private space.  Pictured are the lockers received and installed. 
In other club news:  A barbecue was hosted by the club and Torrie Warner a member of the VTT from Canada that visited Australia last year. Torrie owns and operates a local farm in Lincoln. A great time touring the farm, barbecuing some steaks and ribs and getting to know and exchange ideas with our visiting Auzzies.
