Thank you E-Rotary and Rotaract! We'd like to thank Lyn Duncan from E-Rotary who recently organised a delivery of quality household goods to Wardell CORE. Rotarians Jon and Mary made the trip to Wardell from Port Macquarie with a trailer loaded with donated kitchen equipment, bedding, cushions, towles and other useful household items. Lyn also connected with the Rotaract kids from Rous Primary who ran a drive for household goods which they collected at school and delivered to Wardell. These items have been distributed to help people restock with essential supplies and to households still doing it tough. Thank you E-Rotary and Rotaract!
