Hi sisters and brothers under the same sun, 

Please read this beautiful poem written by our talented Janine Bell:



What a couple of big weeks, celebrating the 1st Anniversary with our affiliated Rotary Club of Walkerston!
I have had some very positive comments from both DfG and Walkerston Rotary members, that the evening was a great success.
Thank you Walkerston Rotary for your donation, much appreciated, and allowing us to run a raffle, that raised $197.00.
Thank you to Bente McDonald for writing and organising the article in The Daily Mercury – 22.11.2018...Sorry! Wrong date on clipping ? 😎BM 


The boxes of made items ready for packing are near to full. If you have items at home that are complete, please organise getting them to us for our packing day on the 15th December. It is looking like we will have made 700 kits before the year end. If you are unable to finish items you have at home before the packing day, can you please let me know or return them to the rooms.

I had a call from Maryanne Barnes, the lady who took 50 of our kits to Nepal. She was overwhelmed by the response.  I will attach some photos - they tell the story.
How beautiful it is to see our work being distributed among women who would otherwise be isolated while having their period. Well done Maryanne and Thank You.

  

Our Saturday workshop was a great success with 19 volunteers with lots of what we do best, getting done. Our raffle raised $85.00.

This Saturday - 24.11.2018 - is our Christmas/ Lorraine Lee Party
If you are joining us for lunch on this occasion, can you please bring a plate of finger food  to share. I think we can count on Pam for bubbles! Santa will be there, so can you bring a small gift ($10), so we can share some Christmas fun.

Our last workshop for 2018 will be on December 15th, we will break for a month and return on  the 17th January 2019.

Warm Regards
Dianne Catto

Another outstanding DfG morning!
It would be an understatement to say that we are going from strength to strength.
