I’ve said it before but we are privileged to have some amazing charities
working with us to help create the Living Advent Calendar. While they are each
collecting for their charities on a nightly basis they are also volunteering
their time to assist with the set up and delivery of many nights of
performance.
Since Friday 7th is has been the turn of the Rotary
Club of Wokingham to act as main assistance, expect to see many Wokingham
Rotary high-vis jackets putting up sound systems and lights, and making sure our
performances go with a bang!
We hope you will give generously, bucket collectors will be out each
evening for you to make any donations. The bucket collectors are collecting for
all four Charities (WADE, JAC, More Arts and Wokingham Rotary) at the end of
the 24 days the final total will be split evenly between the Charities.
“Rotary is a worldwide, voluntary organisation of
like-minded business people, operating in 168 countries, who wish to provide
service to others.
Rotarians develop community service projects that
address many of today’s most critical issues, such as polio eradication, infant
mortality, children at risk, poverty and hunger, the environment, illiteracy
and violence. Rotary also supports programmes for young people, educational
opportunities and international exchanges for students, teachers and other
professionals, assisting with vocational and career development.
Just as
importantly, Clubs also support many local needs, organisations and charities
to the benefit of the elderly and young alike.
The
Rotary Motto – Service Above Self.
- David
Gold, President of The Rotary Club of Wokingham”
