07.01.2022 **SEEKING DONATIONS OF MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS** There is a Disadvantaged Children's program that is running in Samoa by a music school to support kids that are living on the streets or are needing assistance in other ways. We are supporting this program by donating musical instruments, in particular recorders; but any musical instruments are welcome. Please shoot us a message through messenger and we can arrange a pick up. ... For those that do not know, one of our projects is our Samoan project that we have ongoing for over 16 years now. Annually, we send a container organised by DIK (Donations in Kind) in collaboration with Rotary Caroline Springs to aid in providing useful goods such as school stationary, computers, furniture (desks, chairs, hospital beds), clothes etc. for their schools, hospitals and even entire villages as well as other places in need across Samoa. Thank you in advance for your support of this project and our club.
