Praise for Rotary Volunteers
"In emergency situations like this, circumstances can change rapidly and operating environments can be very "fluid” and at times chaotic. The "can do” attitude of the members of Rotary and their willingness to respond quickly and decisively is a true credit to Rotary. I have had the good fortune to work with some remarkable individuals that makes our job so much easier. They are truly a pleasure to work alongside." - World Vision Regional Manager South Island Christopher Hannen [26 February]
