Dayspring Project
International Humanitarian Project-Dayspring Children’s Village
The Rotary Club of Yea supports the Dayspring Children’s Village in South Africa: ‘An Island of Hope in a Sea of Poverty’.
We have supported the installation of spouting, water tanks and an artesian bore at the Dayspring Village. The next major step is to provide toilets and sewage and we are planning to apply for a Rotary Foundation grant to facilitate these improvements.
Fundraising has been through wine sales, raffles, market stalls and the sale of ‘Peace Angels’.
We are hoping to raise more through the ‘Pilgrimage for Dayspring’ – and will seek sponsorship for this later in the year.
The Rotary Club of Yea has supported Dayspring since 2005 after being asked by Sacred Heart Primary School to assist in locating a worthwhile project for the school to use the funds they had raised for a ‘Water Project’.
This is a valuable and sustainable project of the Rotary Clubs of Yea and Rustenburg Kloof in South Africa.
