    Jill and Marjorie delivered the 30 story books to MYPLC for the young children of the teenage students. These were purchased from the raffle proceeds in December, in memory of Wendy, who began our liaison with this centre. They were impressed with the selection of books and appreciative of the sentiments behind our donation.

    It was so enjoyable to celebrate the 98th anniversary of International Inner Wheel with a morning tea at Nancy and Brian’s home. There was lots of chatter as it was our first successful attempt to get together in 5 months and we thank the O’Sheas for hosting this event and for their warm hospitality. (Especially Brian for his continuous supply of hot water and coffees throughout the morning.)

    The South Indian harvest festival of Ponggal which celebrates renewal is observed annually in Malaysia. In the throes of thanksgiving for nature’s bounty, the Inner Wheel Club of Butterworth decided to bring hope and opportunity to five economically challenged women. The Club undertook to donate a brand-new sewing machine to each of them so that they may uplift themselves and their families through a new venture. This task was made possible with the support of Club members who generously contributed towards the project which culminated in the handover of the five machines to the recipients on 15thJ anuary 2022. Project leads appointed by President Santhi Sundara painstakingly vetted the list of recipients and narrowed it down to five of the most deserving and likely to embark and persevere in a new business endeavour. Members also undertook the task of scouring the local market for the best possible bargain in acquiring the most popular brand of sewing machines with the most sought after features. Thus, eight Club members got together to handover the sewing machines . Mr Phang, the supplier of the machines, efficiently put the ladies through the paces and even got them to have a feel for the machines themselves as he fielded their questions and showed them the ropes. President Santhi Sundara in her address at the gathering, congratulated the five ladies who hail from five different locations on the mainland of Penang state. A successful businesswoman in her own right, she pledged continued support for the ladies and promised to set up a chat group with them to collect data and help them in their new business ventures Club members were touched by the gracious words of appreciation by the five recipients. Everyone then adjourned for masala tea and snacks.

    39 Xmas Crackers from ‘Look Good Feel Better’ to be given to a charity of our choice. Stand was chosen and a delighted Pene Frost collected them with heartfelt thanks

    Some of the fabulous rugs / duvets made by Karen and the hard working IW ladies who dropped their lovely work to Karen. Karen and I dropped all the beautiful work to the Botany Birth Care venue last week.

    A photo of the numerous face masks and some of the colourful girls pads that have been made over the last ‘lockdown’. A great effort by all concerned. Very impressive

    Shirley Dickson has been wrapping up items for our Mothers and babies in our district. Shirley delivers these to the Maternity Hospital. The nursing staff know which families need this kind of support. If you have any items – such as those in the photos and wish to donate, Shirley would love to receive these. Photos are of the latest batch of these beautiful packs/boxes to be delivered this month. A wonderful job Shirley, and thank you so much for all the time and effort (and the items themselves) you contribute to this cause. It is appreciated by us all.

    A Big thank you to everyone who volunteered to gift wrap the Christmas Presents in the North City Plaza, especially those that did more than one shift. This activity was with the Porirua and Plimmerton Rotary and a great way to raise funds for our Wellington Children's Hospital. I believe we alone had over 36 hours of voluntary work so a great job done by all. Although some of the gifts needed more than one pair of hands to wrap. It was fun and everyone was in good spirits.
