The Michael Project

 

The Rotary Club of Bromley has supported this project for a number of years which was founded in Zimbabwe by Helenthe niece of one of our former members and her husband David, with the aim of providing support and education for the orphans of Aids victims and the children of woman in prisonThe charities activities now include the Shalom Childrens’ Home which has an urgent need for a bus totransport the children to school, outings and clinic appointments.

To raise the necessary $40,000, David recently undertook the Bridge to Bezi sponsored cycle ride of &50km from Beitbridge, on the border with South Africa, to the South toVictoria Falls on the border with Zambia to the North.


Our donation of £1000 enabled the team to reach their target.
