Chair Helen Moylan
The attached September newsletter brings you up to date with progress on our Give Every Child a Future (GECAF) project. It’s really exciting to have reached the stage of being nearly fully funded, and seeing extensive activity across the Pacific countries that are benefiting from the immunisation program. Events beyond Rotary's control meant we could not produce a June newsletter but the September edition is a bumper one. Our immunisation program rollouts have gained momentum as COVID-19 restrictions have eased and borders in Pacific countries start to re-open.
