The need for Rotary is even greater


Dear Graeme
and fellow Rotarians in Wellington,

With this colourful and happy picture I send you greetings and best wishes on the occasion of Easter 2011.
This picture was created by children and mothers of the Chernobyl region while attending a recovery period in Drushnaja, Belarus, co-sponsored by our Rotary Club. We are happy that we could contribute a bit to bring back hope and confidence to some of those badly affected by the disaster of Chernobyl.
Unfortunately, manmade and natural disasters continue to disrupt our well-being as recently experienced in Christchurch, Fukushima and the Arab world. That means there will be no end to Rotary to lend a hand.
I do hope that the worst effects of the Christchurch earthquake have been overcome meanwhile and normal life can return.
 Warm regards
Dieter
