The Rotary Club of Stellenbosch recently reconnected with one of its pioneering projects, Molenhof Retirement Home.
The heartwarming ceremony was attended by club members and residents.
The event marked a significant milestone in the club’s ongoing commitment to community service and environmental sustainability.
In a symbolic gesture, member of the Rotary club planted three water oak trees in the Molenhof garden, embodying the club’s dedication to protecting the planet and promoting a greener future.
This initiative aligns perfectly with Rotary’s environmental sustainability pillar, one of the seven areas of focus for the organisation.
The connection between Rotary and Molenhof dates back to 1957, when the club built the retirement home as part of its community-service projects.
This reconnection is a testament to Rotary’s vision for sustainable community development and its commitment to making a lasting impact in the local community.
“The environment is one of Rotary’s key areas of focus, and we’re thrilled to be reconnecting with Molenhof,” said president Laurence Chambers.
“Our goal is to have a meaningful presence in Stellenbosch and contribute to the local communities.”
The event was a special occasion for all present, with residents and guests enjoying snacks and refreshments after Chambers’ address.
