Donations in Kind - "The Perfect Project"

Donations In Kind is the program whereby Rotarians and Rotary Clubs source surplus goods and products within Australia that have no further use here.
These goods however, are valuable to those in needy countries. A central co-ordination committee stores, packs and dispatches the goods to those needy countries.
 
DIK will coordinate the dispatch and delivery of these items.
