The Rotary Club of St. Maarten paid a surprise visit to "No Kidding with our kids Foundation" also known as ASA.
The Club has started a community service project which involves the distribution of non perishable goods to organizations on the island that have good use for these items. On this occasion, director Merlyn Schaminee with just a few minutes notice, a gathered several children of the after school activity to receive 13 cases of chocolate milk and 3 cases of juice which were made available through the generosity of Prime Distributors. Present to make the presentation were the Rotary Club community director Bobby Keough, President Pierre Decelles, Secretary Kenny Idnani and member Maria Buncamper-Molanus.
After the presentation members of the club were given a tour of the facility and were treated to an opportunity to observe the children baking cakes to raise funds for the victims in Haiti. Other activities ongoing at the Sucker-garden afternoon school were homework assistance, reading, handicraft, agriculture, etc.
The Rotary Club of St. Maarten will continue this project for as long as the goods are made available. Well deserving organizations can look forward to a call as the next beneficiary in this Rotary project.
