Rotaract Club Montebello

On Saturday, 6th June, members of the Rotaract Club of Montebello had the privilege of organising a *Winter Drive* at BPS Care Home. The aim of this project was to ensure that the residents of the home are equipped with materials that will be of aid during the incoming winter. ❄️🧣

Prior to the visit, members spent the late evening of 4th June, following our monthly board meeting, preparing our donation materials with great care and attention. There was a lot of laughter, fun, and synergy involved as members worked hand in hand to make the project a success. 🤝

The afternoon event at BPS Care Home started with the donation of blankets, diapers, and snacks to the residents. The smiles on their faces reminded us how meaningful even the smallest acts of kindness can be. 😊

With the aim of bringing joy to our lovely seniors, multiple rounds of Bingo were played, during which Rotaractors actively assisted the ladies, displaying teamwork, compassion, and a true spirit of service towards the community. The interaction between members and residents created many memorable moments and beautiful memories. 🎉

The visit ended with a fiery dance session, where both residents and Rotaractors shared moments of laughter, music, and happiness, creating an atmosphere of pure joy and connection. 💃🎶

The residents' blessings and gratitude towards us by the end of our stay truly warmed our hearts. Members of the club are grateful to have had the opportunity to organise and participate in such a meaningful project, reminding us once again that service is not only about giving, but also about connecting, sharing, and caring for one another. 🌟

A heartfelt thank you to all Rotaract members who contributed in their own way to make this project a meaningful success. Your teamwork, commitment, and spirit of service made a real difference. 🤝

✨ An opportunity that truly warmed our hearts. ✨

The members of the Rotaract Club of Montebello were honoured to join hands with our sponsor club in supporting the beautification of the yard at Allée Brillant SENRDC School. 🎨🏫

Demonstrating their commitment to Service Above Self, a team of dedicated Rotaractors devoted their Saturday, 23rd May, to enhancing the school environment by adding colour and life to the yard walls ahead of the official launch of the new accessibility ramp. 🤝

Every brushstroke reflected our desire to create a more welcoming and joyful space for the children and staff of the school. ✨ Small actions, when carried out with passion and purpose, can make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.

A heartfelt thank you to all the members who generously gave their time and energy to support this initiative and contribute to a more inclusive and inspiring learning environment. 🌟🙌

🌍 Service Beyond Boundaries 🌿

The Rotaract Club of Montebello is proud to have received three Certificates of Appreciation and a Letterhead Exchange from the Rotaract Club of St. Xavier’s College, Ranchi (India) 🇮🇳 for our contribution to their international initiative - VOYAGE 3250. 💫

Through our tree-planting drive in Moka 🌳 and food and clothing donation in celebration of International Women’s Day 💜, we joined hands with global Rotaractors to create sustainable and compassionate change in our communities.

This collaboration reminds us that service knows no borders and that together, we can build a world rooted in kindness, unity, and impact. 🌸🤝

Testimony – Pushali, Rotaractor of Montebello 🚑

Today, I had the opportunity to participate in the “Moka’ Pav Sov Enn Lavi” session, organised in collaboration with St John Ambulance Mauritius. It was a truly enriching experience where we learned essential first aid techniques in a fun, interactive, and practical way 🩹

We took part in hands-on activities that helped us understand CPR ❤️‍🩹 and how to respond when someone is choking . The session was very insightful and eye-opening, as I realised that some actions I previously thought were helpful could actually be harmful in an emergency situation. I now feel more confident and better prepared to assist someone if the need arises 🚨

I would like to sincerely thank the organisers for this wonderful initiative, as well as the President Aneesh for the opportunity of being part of this meaningful session that highlights the importance of first aid in our everyday lives ✨
