Vanuatu Literacy Project

This is a project initiated by our District Literacy Committee led by Murray Neighbour. NZ$79,200.00 was raised which has enabled Reading Books in

French to be purchased for 164 French speaking schools in the six provinces of Vanuatu. They were scheduled to arrive in Port Villa at the end of last month where they will be distributed by Read Pacific, Vanuatu Post and the Port Vila Rotary Club.

This is another example of a successful multi country / District / Club matching grant project with contributors from: 

  • 6 clubs from USA District 6930, Florida.
  • Bundaberg Rotary Club Australia.
  • 20 District 9910 Clubs, including Norfolk Island, Noumea, Takapuna North, Northcote Glenfield, and East Coast Bays.
