On September 21st Waterford Rotary is holding a Community Benefit night at Kilcohan Park
Greyhound track in aid of South East Simon Community.
With 10 greyhound races on the night, a door prize raffle for €500,
novelty human race, food and drink and loads of further prizes, a great night
is gauranteed.
Tickets from just €10 are available for individuals
or famillies, for the racing or dinner, and can be purchased from any Waterford
Rotary Club member, Nolke
Opticians in Ardkeen,
Fitz U Mens Wear in Waterford City and the south east Simon shop on
Michael street.
The funds raised
from the evening will be used to assist the redevelopment of four units of
accommodation in Waterford City. The accommodation will be used to give
people a home and with South East Simon Community, this means for life.
While providing a
home for the homeless is vital, it is just the first step. The tenant and
South East Simon Community then agree a support plan tailored to each individuals
needs. South East Simon Community provide advice, advocacy and life skills
coaching. They support the tenant to address any mental health or
addiction issues and assist in the tenants integration into the local
community. South East Simon work together with the tenant on every step
of the journey from homelessness to independent living.
Without the
homes, the bricks and mortar, this work would not be possible. Please
support our event and help Waterford Rotary Club raise the vital funds needed
to develop the homes South East Simon Community need to do this much needed
work in our local community.
The Rotary Club
of Waterford, Ireland is a very active club with dedicated members working on
many projects throughout each year. We meet every Monday except Bank Holidays
in Tower Hotel Waterford at 12.30 am.
