At a recent gala event at Fig and Bean, Rotary Hoedspruit handed out a number of substantial awards to deserving causes. The funds are raised annually at the Hoedspruit Rotary K2C Cycle Tour which traverses Blue Canyon, Kapama, Thornybush and Timbavati PNRs. Each of these reserves were presented with R30,000 to be spent on conservation on their respective reserves.
Paul White representing Timbavati PNR thanked President Wilna, confirming, “This money makes a really worthwhile contribution to our much needed conservation fund and Rotary’s generosity is much appreciated.”
