"Lets go Green, Tanzania"

Miss Mariam Odemba, Miss Earth Air 2008 and the Ambassador for Rotary on Environmental issues was the speaker at the meeting on Wednesday 22nd July 2009.  She told the Club of her promise when crowned to plant 20,000 trees in Tanzania.  She was accompanied by her Manager, Maria Sarungi, who gave details of progress to date and their partnership with the WWF (World Widelife Fund).  The talk was of great interest to Rotarians both of Dar RC and the other rotary clubs in Dar in view of the planned Charity Walk scheduled for end September in aid of tree planting.

Mariam, much to the delight of Giuseppe Rosiello the winner, presented the raffle prize.  She concluded her speech by repeating her slogan which she has chosen for her reign "Lets go green Tanzania".
