Don't Hock Your Socks......Donate Them!
Kardinia RC is asking for community assistance in providing socks for the homeless, coming into Winter.This is a great way to finish off the rotary year with a local community project that won't take up much time or effort and we would be making a real difference to a lot of people in need of something as basic as a pair of socks.
The closing date for the collection of socks at our club is June 20th.
