Books for the Solomons
In 2002, in response to an appeal from a Wellington VSA lawyer working in Kirakira, the provincial capital of the Makira-Ulawa Province in the Solomon Islands, the Rotary Club of Karori collected and despatched some 3,000 books to Honiara for subsequent distribution to the library in Kirakira and schools on Makira (also known as San Cristobal) Island.
Applications for membership are always welcome
