Rotary Club donate over €1000

The Rotary Club of Gozo and Alnwick UK along with the support from The Rotary Foundation donated over €1,000 for the purchase of a special bed for the clients of Dar Arka.

Hard cash is needed to keep this centre running efficiently. In fact about Lm100,000 is spent annually, the bulk of which is taken up by wages.

Fund-raising activities are continually organized. To help the centre along in this uphill struggle, a large number of volunteers give freely of their time and abilities. Also, the Director, Mgr Manuel Curmi, goes as far afield as Australia and Canada in his quest to collect much-needed funds.

A membership scheme has been launched in which a yearly donation, however small, is voluntarily paid. To date, over 400 persons have joined the scheme.
