Connecting and Educating -- World Malaria Day 2022

Woodbridge-Perth Amboy Rotarian Francoise “Riisa” Kauzya, who is from Uganda, mentioned a district in Uganda in need of medical attention and supplies. When her appeal in April of 2022 to Woodbridge-Perth Amboy Rotarians for $500 was approved, Riisa was encouraged to ask Ugandan Rotarians to match her request to help purchase malaria testing kits and medication for 75 people at a camp scheduled for World Malaria Day, April 25th. Her success on both shores was a success for Nyabushenyi Health Center II, Uganda, Sub Saharan Africa.

Rotarians "Have-A-Heart" in 2022

Members of Rotary Club of Woodbridge-Perth Amboy rallied in February to collect food for the Woodbridge Township “Have-A-Heart” Food Drive Challenge, which replenishes pantries after the holidays every year. Special thanks go to Rotarian Ralph Winter for gathering two large donations of food that exceeded the 214 pounds.

Food was gathered by "We Feed Woodbridge," which replenished local pantries. Peter Barcelona, Director of "We Feed Woodbridge," visited the Club in March to thank Club Members for donations over the years, as well as to update the Club on hunger in the Woodbridge and Perth Amboy area.

Rotarians are Victorious in Holiday Challenge Service Project

Lieutenant Maihri Smeaton visited the regular meeting of December 2nd with Perth Amboy Kiwanis Club President, Ken Mayti, to challenge the Rotary Club to a one-day fundraising challenge to take on the Kiwanis Club of Perth Amboy. Both clubs rang the bell to raise money for the Salvation Army of Perth Amboy on December 11th. This year Rotary raised their Club best and exceeded the Kiwanian efforts, previous champions for 2020.

The Salvation Army is able to accept donations through this link: https://salarmy.us/perthamboyredkettle if you, a friend or family member would have liked to join Rotarians in the challenge to assist the Salvation Army this season.
