Covid-19 outbreak reaction

Mar 31, 2020 | Covid-19, Projects

The Rotary Club of Kenton on Sea is partnering with the local Kenton Ratepayers Association (KOSRA) in a humanitarian initiative in this lockdown time of the Covid 19 virus. The club has donated a significant sum of money to KOSRA towards a food delivery campaign. The KOSRA committee will collaborate with the local Spar outlet to deliver food parcels to those in need in our community.

We have also made a donation to the local SPCA in a time of severe financial shortage in this lockdown period. This non profit organisation needs money for pet foods, medicines and salaries for the workers. Due to the lockdown, they have not been able to do any of their planned fundraisers and have appealed to the public also to consider donations to the SPCA.
