Local Rotary Clubs join forces for Early Childhood Intervention Centre

 

 

18 September 2008

Over the past 4 years the fundraising efforts of the committee of Trustees , comprising members of the Rotary Clubs of Altona and Hoppers Crossing have raised at total of $72,000.  The two Rotary Clubs set up the Early Intervention Trust to manage the funds which have enabled Yooralla to provide a playgroup in Altona North for young children with disability and their families. 

Trust members are pictured at the Altona North Early Childhood Intervention Centre following a meeting at which they discussed plans for the Grand Opening of the newly refurbished Centre on 8 December when it is expected that the Clubs will present the Centre with a motorised chair for toddlers and unveil plans for a cubbie house.
