Mosman Rotary Donates Face Masks to Vietnam

Ms FELICITY WILSON (North Shore)

—Speaker, I wish to recognise the extraordinary work of the Mosman Rotary Club for their generous contribution of face masks to the communities struggling in Vietnam. They are a strong club operated by volunteers that formed over 60 years ago. The Mosman Rotary club is a devoted and dedicated group of people who work selflessly to help people in our local community and other communities in need internationally. Recently, the Rotary Club took on the project of providing face masks to communities in Vietnam after they emerged from a three-month lockdown. The club supplied over 300,000 K95 face masks and supported the logistics and freight costs of a 20ft container to Vietnam. The Mosman Rotary Club has a strong relationship with Rotary in Vietnam and was well-placed to assist. I commend the Mosman Rotary and the Board members for their dedication and passion for helping others, especially during this incredibly challenging time.
