ROTARY COLLECTS FOR PAKISTAN


















The Rotary Club of Gibraltar recently held an emergency Flag collection day for Shelterbox Charity outside Morrison's Supermarket in Gibraltar. The Club would like thank everyone who gave their valuable time and/or equipment and/or money for their generosity.

The Rotarians have, through the overwhelming generosity of the Gibraltar public, managed to raise over £1,500 to send approximately 4 shelterboxes ( in addition to the two recently sent by the club) to
help Pakistan recover from the recent tragic flood that has devastated the country and its people.

These shelterbox kits, which were originally a U.K. Rotarian's brain child , provide essential basic shelter and survival equipment for two or three families at a time and were first used for the Haitian disaster last year.
