Inspired at the recent District Conference, Sandra
has taken up the
's Socks in the City Drive, and will be collecting
(new) socks at our next few
on May 2nd
THE VALUE OF A PAIR OF SOCKS IS WAY MORE THAN THE PRICE
Homeless people struggle to find clean dry socks to wear
. As a result they can develop both trench foot and warm water immersion foo
t and, unfortunately, a homeless person with a history of this is eight times more likely
to die in the
next five years compared to a person who is not homeless.
THE BEST TREATMENT IS PREVENTION
Once trench foot or warm water immersion foot has developed healing occurs only
when the feet are cleaned, dried and exposed to air for weeks.
The best
treatment is prevention and the best prevention is to wear clean dry socks.
YOU CAN HELP BY:
Donating socks – preferably new adult socks in natural fibres (cotton or wool)
. Donated socks can brought to our
So, next time you're out shopping - why not pick up a pair or two and help Sandra fill this box...

It's almost that time of Year that Matt will trade in his warm bed and sleep out
in the cold for 1 night to raise money for the
homeless people in Australia.

9,000 are in our own
backyard in Western Australia.
This will be his 5th year participating in this wonderful cause
and thanks to all the family
, friends and Rotarians that have donated towards the fundraiser.
