Containers for Change
We are excited to announce that the Global Nurses and Midwives Rotary Club has become part of the change!!
 
Caring for our environment is one of Rotary and our Club’s 7 areas of focus. It is so important that we all contribute to protecting our environment as much as possible.
 
Containers for Change is a fabulous initiative that promotes positive recycling behaviours that helps the environment as well as supporting charities to fundraise.
 
It is a win – win for all involved.
