BVI Family of Rotary - Haiti Telethon
The Rotary Family of the BVI is launching a major fundraising event
to help Hurricane Victims in Haiti.
The passage of monster hurricane Matthew has claimed over 900 lives in Haiti and left about 350,000 people homeless. Haiti is one of the poorest countries in the World and help is urgently needed.
The first event to raise funds will take place on Wednesday, 12th October. Rotarians, Rotaractors and Interactors will be seen all over town as part of the “Rotary Bucket Brigade”. On Virgin Gorda the Rotaractors and Interactors will be out with buckets to collect donations on our sister Island from 3pm - 8pm.
They do appeal to the good-hearted people of the BVI to stop at the buckets and drop a contribution. Every Dollar will help.
Between 7:00pm and 9:00pm please tune in to JTV Channel 55, transmitting from the fundraising headquarters at Maria’s by the Sea, simultaneously broadcasted on ZBVI 780AM. Please call in your pledges at any of the following telephone numbers: 494 7354, 494 9565, 494 8759 & 494 6368. Cash, cheques, Visa & Master Card will be gratefully accepted
The Rotary Family of the BVI would be most appreciative of the generosity of the BVI Community.
Its estimated that over $40,000.00 was raised between the telethon and bucket brigade collection. Excellent effort and thank you to all involved and the BVI Community for your generous donations.
