We made it!! This morning, our club Rotaract Scheveningen delivered 10 breakfasts all around the Hague in support of the Rotary Honduras Hurricane Relief! Through our ‘Solidarity Breakfast’ initiative, we collected funds for families affected by hurricanes Eta and Iota in Honduras.
In collaboration with the local Rotary club of Roatan (a Honduran island), our goal was to collect funds that will provide food bags to families in need in Honduras.
How did we manage to achieve that? Our incredible Italian chef, with the help of our club members and volunteers, prepared breakfasts which were delivered to everyone in who signed up to participate in our initiative. 24 people in total started their Sunday with a delicious breakfast!
Not only did we contribute to a good cause, but also had a lot of fun preparing and delivering the breakfasts. And all the warm ‘thank you’ and smiles we received in return … cannot be described in words!
A HUGE thank you to everyone who took part in our Solidarity Breakfast! Together, we can move mountains!
And if you already regret missing this delicious event, don’t worry! We have many more activities planned for the new year!
For now, enjoy the holiday season!
