Rotary Club of Limbe, Malawi

Rotarian Rhoda introduced a relative who gave the Rotary Minute. Lois MacCallum-Losacco, a Rotarian from the Rotary Club of Limbe, Malawi (District: 9210, Club:17303), spoke about the work of her Rotary Club in Africa.

Lois grew up in Moncton but made her permanent residence in Malawi after she finished University and worked on a unique project in that country. Lois and her husband run a Café and Art Gallery in the city of Limbe and are active in the community. Health and literacy are significant concerns in Malawi, a country that is recorded as being the seventh most impoverished country in the world.

Lois showcased special eyeglasses that were being made in her area to help students with poor vision. Malnutrition has meant that one-quarter of the children need glasses... 

 
As a thankful gesture, Lois presented President Rob Driscoll with a banner from the Rotary Club of Limbe, and in return, Lois was presented with a Rotary Club of Sussex golf shirt.
