Rowan McClean, a member of the Rotary Club of North Balwyn, is the Chair of Overseas Kids Foundation (OKF) which is currently addressing the needs of several communities in Vietnam. OKF is a Rotary-initiated program which was registered as a charitable trust in Melbourne in 2008. Some of the projects they have concentrated on include: - Children's support
- Water sanitization to WHO standards
- Ultrasound machines to each district
- Children's education
- Breaking the poverty cycle by farming
- Donations in Kind – container of furniture
Rowan suggested that our club could support the program in a number of ways: - Join a team visit to Vietnam
- Fund a student
- Fund raise for school clinic equipment
