Rotary Dental Grant
Christmas in April
The Cararoo Foundation has 120 children attending
Nursery, Elementary and High School,.
Mrs Letty Miranda, (Picture below) and friends of our
late Chair Person Eli Miranda organised an early
Christmas for the Cararoo children, which fitted in very
well with the end of the school year.
In 2011, as part of the sponsorship, a vitamin program
was started, and with the support of Rotary PDG Tony
Castley and the Rotary Club of Northlakes Toukley &
Rotary International, as of September 2013, a 12 month
Dental Program has begun.
A number of friends and organisations donated
clothing, groceries, soap, toys, Tupperware, tooth
brushes & tooth paste, hot meals, fruit and drinks for a
party. A full list of those who helped make the day a
success can be seen on the WELCOME picture.
As part of the Health program established in
2011, ‘Food, Vitamins & Oral Hygiene’ are
taught to the children.
A blessing by Sister
made the day special.
Our first dental
patient Abegail Onas
We would like to thank Barangay
Captain Gloria for her words to
the children. Gloria will be retiring
soon, and will be greatly missed
as she has been part of the
Cararoo family since 1996.
The children organised a concert to say thank you for
the early Christmas celebration. And in typical Filipino
fashion they sang a beautiful song.
