LEGO GALORE
 
Donations In Kind contacted their supporter Rotary Clubs recently. They had received 8 pallets of new Lego from a company but the Lego was not to be sold but could be donated. DIK offered the pallets to their supporting Rotary Clubs for $750 each but each pallet contained over 300 boxes of new Lego Kits valued at over $8000. The Rotary Club of Essendon agreed to purchase a pallet and Christine Hilbert & Michael Carris picked up the Lego Kits from DIK. It was decided that the Lego Kits would be donated to Vincent Care in Glenroy who look after needy families in the West of Melbourne and Michael & Christine delivered the kits to them this week. Vincent Care were thrilled to receive so many Lego Kits in time for them to be distributed to their needy families in time for them to give their children a lovely Christmas Present. This has been a Win-Win, DIK has received much needed funds to continue their great work and Vincent Care have provided Christmas Presents to children who might not have received anything in this tough financial climate. Well done to Christine & Michael
