Dear Rotarians,

Below are the typical email and attachments which my office has been sending out to our friends and associates.

We have been following up with them and will continue the following up until end of this month.I will update the Club on the amount collected next week.

On behalf of the flood victims, I would like to thank our fellow Rotarians who have donated or pledged to donate to date :

1) PP Anga – RM 2000
2) PP Ooi Kao Yang – RM 1100
3) Rtn Teo Shiok Fu – RM 1000
4) PP Kay Hua -Rm 3000
5) PP Ann Kiat- RM3000

I hope that other Rotarians would also chip in.If each of us on average could raise RM 500, we would get at least RM30,000 for this campaign which would benefit about 100 households.

We will finalise the collection of donations by end Dec 2011 so that we can plan how to distribute to the recipients in Jan 2012.

Knita Is now back in Singapore and she will be liaising with the Rotary Club of Meawang , Lampang and the Rotary Club in Nankonsawan for co-ordination of distribution of the donation.The correspondence between them will be copied to the Club for information and update.

She plans to go to Thailand in the second week of Jan 2012 and I hope that the Club can appoint one of our Rotarians to accompany her to Thailand and to monitor and verify the distribution of the fund.

( PP Yeo Ann Kiat )
