their spouses, and Rotaractors
who share a common passion.
Being part of a fellowship is a fun way to make
friends from around the world.
WHAT
FELLOWSHIPS ARE AVAILABLE?
Fellowship
activities vary widely.
Members come together around hobbies or interests such
as cricket or jazz,
or vocations such as writing or medicine.
Some groups are
purely social while others
use their fellowship for service projects.
HOW DO I JOIN
A FELLOWSHIP?
You
can also contact a fellowship directly by using
and Rotaract members with similar interests.

Rotary Club of Karrinyup
This week's Rotary Club of Karrinyup meeting
was all about
giving back to our community.
With proceeds raised
through the very popular Stirling Farmers Market,
the club handed over cheques
to three beneficiaries.
The club is again
delighted to support Marmion Primary School
and their Jack the Wagtail
initiative which sees students
raise much valuable funds for Dr Fiona Wood and
her Burns Research Teams.
Receiving the donation on behalf of the school was
Glenn, the school's Deputy Principal.
Our second beneficiary was the Batten Disease
and Support Research Association.
Batten disease is a fatal, inherited disorder of the nervous system
that typically begins in childhood.
With two daughters having had the disease,
Pauline shared her story and that of the work required to find a cure.
Our final recipient of the night was the Princess Margaret Hospital Foundation.
Their representative, Anne, spoke about the work of the Foundation
in assisting the hospital with vital medical equipment,
specialist staff, research, complementary services
and services beyond PMH
