Community Action is Fun

Members of Click 4 Action eRotary continue to plan, deliver and have fun while they undertake Service in their communities, two months already into the new Rotary Year and there is so much underway.

Saturday 30th August Rotarian Sunil Prakash involved his eRotary connections in a well attended seminar, he reports: “The seminar cum workshop by IPC was a grand success. The volley of questions for clarifications from the audience were well tackled by the panel members consisting of Rtn. Dr. Sunil Prakash representing Consumers Forum, Rotary Eclub 1100 and International Alliance of Patients Organization, then By Mr. Arun Kumar of Dignity india and finally by Dr. Toda Prasad of Indian Pharmacopoeia Commission.

This was not all. The students of IMS law college and members of Consumer Club organised a competition on ‘EBOLA’, the deadly disease going around the world. 10 students spoke very well with a lot of material and information on the same.  Three students, bagged the First , second and third award. First position went to Ms. Swati Chakravarti, second to Ms. Shrishti Guha and third position to Mr. Anmol Singh. Congratulations to them. Other students also spoke very well. We congratulate and thank all the participants for speaking on a common subject and with full confidence.”

Rotarian Ray Chair of MAD Foodbank Steering Group helping at Commissioning Service

On Sunday 7th September some of the Click 4 Action eRotary members were pleased to be at the Commissioning Service of the Malmesbury and District Foodbank at the United Reformed Church. On the 8th September the MAD Foodbank opened and it is with fun memories we remember our visit to the Trussell Trust in July 2013 where the seed was sown and the idea of the eRotary helping to support the work of Foodbanks first began. Two of our Rotarians are trustees of this project and are pleased to be working in partnership with the Churches Together in Malmesbury.

Please visit our MAD Foodbank Facebook pages and help by sharing the posts. Don’t forget to let us know how you are helping the Foodbank movement in your communities.
