An emergency collection for the victims of Cyclone Nargis which recently swept across the Irrawaddy Delta took place at Sainsburys Dronfield store on Saturday 10th of May. The Rotary clubs of Dronfield and Drone Valley joined forces for collection which ran from 09.00 until 17.00
Thanks to the generosity of the shoppers, and the staff of Sainsburys for allowing us to stage the collection at short notice. The total collected was £910. The money has immediately been distributed to two Rotary charities, Shelterbox and Aquabox.
Shelterbox have already distributed aid across the disaster area and Aquabox are currently delivering aid via local aid agencies.
