BLANKET PROJECT - WINTER WARMER MIDDELBURG

The Middelburg Rotary Club had a warm and wonderful experience on Friday night 6 May 2011 handing out 72 blankets to the underpriviledged.

Rotarians put together a much appreciated project for the underprivileged people living on the streets of Middelburg in the winter cold.

The whole story started with a truck load of Rotarians, SAP escort and the Ann’s food parcels. We searched for the homeless and handed them all warm blankets and food parcels.

The warm smiles and appreciation on their faces was worth every minute we spend looking for them in the cold.
