(GUEST) SPEAKER
PP Jo Rosarius
PP Jo gave a presentation on the District’s TRF Seminar he attended on the 20th August with PP Mimi and Karl-Heinz and gave the members an update about District Grants and Global Grants. The biggest change is that two signatures are now required for all monetary transactions.
PDG Dr. Ritje is in charge of the District Grants and she gave our club a few options where to use our US$ 675,- from the District account, and a Malnutrision Project was choosen by our representatives. The project will last one year and if more funds are required RCBND will need to finance the rest.
PP Jo also reported about his contact with Dr. Claus Bogh of The Sumba Foundation about possible cooperation in Cleft Lip project in Sumba. It turns out that the foundation has been cooperating with a team of doctors from Australia and are executing 80 operations in 8 days in Sumba and have been doing this twice a year. So no operations from RCBND are needed at this point of time.
