Welcome to the Home of MAPS and RFFA Australia!

Road MAPS to Africa is a project of the Rotary Club of Coolamon. We invite you to take a look around our MAPS web site and learn about the current situation in Sub-Saharan Africa-then join us on the road to Africa by choosing one of the Road MAPS. This site is also the home of RFFA Australia (Rotarians for Fighting AIDS). Any contribution you care to make now or at any time will be more than appreciated and very well invested.

Sweetwaters Quilt Project

Some of the Sweetwaters Quilters.

Edna's Quilt that we bought and sleep under.

IN 2005 we visited Sweetwaters quilt project at the home of a Rotarian couple from the Rotary Club of Hilton Howick, Rick and Elisabeth Baratta near Durban.

We bought one of the quilts made by a lady called Edna Mthalene who has no husband and 7 children, her husband died, proably AIDS. We sleep under the quilt every night and it is of African themes, Edna says "Thank you for buying my quilt it will buy a lot of food."

If you would like to suport this Rotary project please contact me and I will send you a Road MAP on how to get there.
