How did the project start?
After the flood that devastated the APS Down School (Brazil) in October 2011, we contacted the Rotary Club of Armidale Central, Australia and presented the difficulties the Down School was going through, because they had lost many equipments and educational materials.
Rotary Club of Armidale Central, through Mr Garske, took the initiative to develop an international project to help the school and the idea of making a Industrial Kitchen emerged. The main idea was to install and fit the kitchen to accommodate Down Students, which could become a form of income to the school and the students.
We are waiting for the delivery of physiotherapy equipments from other suppliers, which were already ordered. The kitchen´s installation is almost finished.
