Project Chef: A Credible Alternative
Dear Editor,
I read in a recent edition of your newspaper about a child sponsorship programme.
May I bring to your readers attention that the Rotary Club of Arusha introduced
such a programme some years ago which is supported by Rotarians in New Zealand
and Australia.
Known as "project chef", the project "clothes, houses, educates and feeds"
children in the Arumeru area who through circumstance need assistance.
For a donation of one-hundred thousand shillings, each sponsorship provides the
necessities of life mentioned above for one year.
This includes school fees and uniforms. Rotary does not deduct any
administrative costs, therefore every shilling given goes to the wellbeing of
the child.
May I commend this programme to your readers as a credible alternative to others
offered in the community. Donations should be sent to the president of the
Rotary Club of Arusha, P. O. Box 637, Arusha and marked "Project Chef."
Stuart J. Batty
Past Governor, Rotary International
New Zealand
