Kirkcudbright Rotary Club have, in the past, offered some financial support to young people who have wished to engage on worthwhile projects that will help communities. The Club has recently decided to support Asia Fairnie and Jazmin Cain, two 16 years old girls who live in Gatehouse, who are about to begin a two week project in Spain helping young Spanish children learn to speak English. Kirkcudbright Rotary Club is pleased to be able to contribute towards the cost of this experience.
The girls are both leading members of The Gatehouse Bunker and Bunkeroo. Both girls are S6 students at Kirkcudbright Academy. At school Asia is a Saltire Volunteer Ambassador and Jazmin a Sports Ambassador. As members of The Gatehouse Bunker both girls have completed their 500 hours of volunteering to gain their Saltire Award certificates and both are now participating in the TGB Young Leaders Programme.
Members of the Rotary club are looking forward to hearing Asian and Jazmin talk about their experiences in Spain at a Club meeting later in July.
