Street Collection in Preston March 2022
Ukranian Crisis Street Collection
The recent street collection had raised a total of £1198 (including Gift Aid claimable under the Government GASDS scheme). The initial intention was to send this to District but recent conversations with Brixham had established that they have had strong links with the Rotary Club of NAPOKA CETATUI in Romania close to the Ukranian border for many years and that they are in a good position to know where the money can be used most effectively so it was agreed that we should partner with Brixham and send the money via them. We had also heard from Newton Abbot that they were sending a lorry of goods and money and would welcome contributions from any local clubs.
We had also agreed to match fund the money collected up to £1,000 from our Covid fund, so over £2,000 was donated.
