The clothing had been given to the Rotary Club of Gaborone by Caratex Botswana (Pty) Ltd on the understanding that the club would find suitable recipients.  Contact was made with Martha Rampa of AAP (Assist a Person) and the children of Mmanoko village were chosen.

Mmanoko is about 10km from Molepolole and has a population of less than 1 000. The children being assisted by AAP in this village are estimated to be a little over 100.

The presentation of the clothing was attended by the Chief of the village, the Councillor and his team, Martha Rampa and her volunteers, and the Rotary contingent who were led by the President of the club, William Lee and the Director of Service Projects, Mrs Sandra Stonehill.
