Bianca von Widdern and Tayla Kaplan of the Crawford Interact Club presented their club's current activities and to us Rotarians it was humbling due to their fantastic activity. Their Interact club has seen a fantastic growth and today consists of 120 members (600 in the whole school).
Their activities are numerous ....Civvies day on Arbor Day yielded enough to buy trees that were planted on the school grounds; work at the SPCA; Blanket drives: Food collections; collections of stationery and books; selling cakes and sweets; visits to old aged homes; food donations to Kids Haven worth R20k; visits to the latter to spend time with those kids; and now they are raising money so that someone may have a heart transplant the cost of which is R60k - to date they have collected R35k so they are well on their way to reach their target. Their motto - One Heart, One Voice, Two Hands. What can be said .... They took our breath away with their energy, enthusiasm and activity. What a wonderful example to other Interact Clubs and Rotary in general. Keep it up .... You are doing Crawford School, Rotary and most of all yourselves proud. |
