Painting the Children's Outpatients Clinic, Port Vila Hospital
A group of Alfredton Rotary members, family and friends (including Michael from RC Ballarat South) headed to Vanuatu to paint the Children's Outpatients clinic. On arrival they saw a brightly coloured mural that was unfortunately the worse for wear and a jaw-dropping array of bright colours throughout the hallway and examination rooms. Thanks to generous donations of equipment from Express Paint Rollers Australia, paint from Dulux and the expertise of Gary Sinclair, they were equipped for the task!
From then on, a little skill and a lot of enthusiasm, cooperation and hard work got the job done.
It was lovely to welcome some Ni-Vanuatu volunteers and Port Vila RC members who helped with the project.
A happy coincidence meant that the darker blue we were expecting turned out to be a very purply blue, or bluey purple - so we spread our signature Alfie purple far and wide!
Thank you to all members of the team, especially Jill for coordinating the project and reluctantly 'herding cats' as needed to get everyone where they needed to be at the right time.
This sort of hands-on project, with a great group of volunteers from various communities working together, is the very epitome of Alfredton Rotary and Rotary in general.
Let us know if you'd like to get involved.
