Our solar lights not only illuminate dark and dangerous paths

, but they enable families to cook meals and children to finish their homework

when it gets dark.

We have distrubuted thousands of solar lights to families

all across the world as we know that a little light can go a long way

in creating a safe and secure environment.

Read more stories of how our solar lights have helped communities

SAIL INTO LIFE IN BUSSELTON started on

WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 7

If you've never sailed or like to sail but never get the chance,

this sail is for you.

Sail Into Life gives anyone who has never enjoyed the thrill of sailing

the chance to safely sail around the Port Geographe harbour

in the company of an experienced sailor.

The small yachts sit low in the water and, even at modest speeds,

they give the feeling of zipping along,

so the sailing experience is exhilarating.

People with a disability, able-bodied people including seniors

who simple want to enjoy the thrill of sailing,

as well as volunteer helpers are welcome to join us

The cost of a sail is just $5 to cover the cost of fuel

and maintenance costs for the mandatory rescue boat.

A Pride of Workmanship Award was made to Kerryn Robbins

at the meeting of 31st October.

Kerryn is the Registrar at Moerlina School.

Since commencing work at the school in 2003

,she has supported countless families going well beyond the boundary of the school,

rendering what Rotary calls 'Service Above Self'.
Well deserved Kerryn!
Principal and member of the RCFB Perette Minciullo

made the presentation to Kerryn who was supported at the meeting

by her mother, sister and colleagues.

Speaker at the RCFB meeting 7th November was Russell Philip

who spoke on Angel Flight,

a topic all in attendance were lacking in knowledge about.
Websitewww.angelflight.org.au
It is a volunteer organisation which transports patients

at no cost where the Flying Doctor is not required,

but people do require transportation to and from treatment,

mainly from the country.
Everyone concerned such as Russell, are volunteer.

Donations to assist Angel Flight with their expenses is tax deductible.
