Rotary Club of Moora


A huge big welcome to our newest Rotarians.
 Paul WalshAlison Goode and Alison & Jim Brown. Fantastic decision. 
— with Alison Brown





















Happy Birthday to us.
 The Rotary Club of Karrinyup was chartered in 1974 
and this week celebrated forty five years of service at a special birthday dinner
 at the Hillarys Yacht Club.
 Many former members and Friends of Rotary 
were able to join us for this historic occasion.
During the evening there was some reminiscing on all the wonderful ways
 our club has served the local, international and youth communities
 through a variety of projects over the years. 

As always the evening featured the presentation
 of the annual Nurse of the Year
 and Michael Chin Humanitarian Awards.
 Many thanks to Dawn for providing the wonderful and delicious birthday cake
 which was cut with great gusto by Charter member Ian McDonagh 
and Pat Fosbery, widow of our founding president Graham.






Dr. Michael Chin, a long serving General Practitioner in the Karrinyup area,
 was a charter member of the Rotary Club of Karrinyup
 serving the Club in various roles and was the first member of our Club 
to be named a Paul Harris Fellow. 
 He passed away in 1998.
 The Michael Chin Humanitarian Award was created in 2000
 to honour outstanding individuals, who serve the community
 and those in need, for their humanitarian and volunteer activities.
  Recipients are people whose daily dedication and caregiving epitomises 
the highest standard of quality and personal commitment.
This year’s recipient is Elizabeth (Beppie) de Kuyer,
 a dedicated volunteer at 'Wheelchairs for Kids', 
the signature project of RC Scarborough based in Wangarra,
 which has provided over 40,000 rough terrain wheelchairs 
to children in need in under-resourced countries throughout the world.
Beppie started volunteering at 'Wheelchairs for Kids'
 while still working as a primary school teacher
 and attended after school and on weekends.
 When she retired, Beppie volunteered five days a week
. Over time she has taken on each and every task that needed doing,
 including overseeing the operation of supplying the 
2,500 odd material covers for the wheelchairs. 
The covers are produced by over 70 ladies.
 She also acts as secretary to the workshop manager
, helps with the morning teas and at times visits
 primary schools to promote fundraising. 
When the workshops shuts down over the Christmas break,
 Beppie can be seen painting and renovating the office and tea room.  
Beppie is truly a well deserved recipient of the Michael Chin Humanitarian Award.  







The Rotary Club of Karrinyup Nurse of the Year Award
 was created in 1990 to honour outstanding nurses
 working at the Osborne Park Hospital. 
 This annual perpetual Award recognises a nurse (or midwife)
 whose daily dedication and care epitomises the highest standard
 of quality and personal commitment. 
 Osborne Park Hospital has a number of wards catering for surgical, rehabilitation,
 midwifery and aged care and there are approximately 270 nurses
 and midwives working at the hospital.
 Nominations for the Award may be made by nurses, patients,
 doctors and hospital management staff. 
This Award, which is displayed proudly on the wall at Osborne Park Hospital,
 is highly regarded by the staff and promoted extensively by the Hospital.
The 2019 Winner of the Nurse of the Year Award is Karen McNulty.
Her nomination tells us that Karen 
did her initial training at Edith Cowan University
 and spent her first two years working at Royal Perth Hospital followed
 by a few years as an agency nurse before
 coming to Osborne Park Hospital
, where she is a Clinical Nurse whose role is to lead
 a team of nurses providing high quality, holistic nursing care 
for a ward for patients over 65 requiring stroke and general rehabilitation care.
  She provides bedside care, education and support to patients,
 staff and visitors within the ward and across the rehabilitation
 and care areas for the Hospital. 
Karen understands and contributes to teamwork maintaining 
constructive, therapeutic and supportive relationships 
with her colleagues consistently.
 Her colleagues acknowledge her as a natural born leader
 stating that she goes the extra mile and really tries to engage 
the patients and their families to get them back on the path to independence.
Karen embodies the traditional view of a nurse –
 with traditional values, but at the same time focuses on patient care 
with the 21st century elements of critical thinking,
 based on current research and the best of contemporary practice.
 Her nomination states that,
 Karen is the nurse I would wish for my loved ones to have look after them.’
The RC Karrinyup offers our sincere congratulations
 to our 2019 Osborne Park Hospital Nurse of the Year – Karen McNulty.















2019
























Congratulations Ash Ladner and PP David Reed 
for another great fund raising event benefiting Passages 
and the work of Vinnies WA
Well done for another near record breaking year!
























The 2019 Rotary Club of Rockingham’s grant night was a great success
 and the club was able to donate $40,000 to nineteen worthy local organisations.
 We received 43 applications totaling more than $250,000 
and so it was a difficult task for the Community Committee
 to select the successful applicants.
Thank you to everyone who came for the evening, 
we had a great night and it was enjoyed by all.

It is through the generosity of the local community 
who come to the Rockingham Rotary Mart on a Sunday 
that our club is able fund such worthy local organisations.
 The club asked the recipients to spend it in our region
 and to remember that shop local, 
buy local is the Rockingham way.

Rotary Club of Swan Districts


This year once again I'm taking the challenge and participating
 On one of the coldest nights, 27th June,
 I'll be sleeping out in the cold for 1 night along with 
many other WA CEOs and business leaders.
 I'm hoping to shed a light on homelessness and to break the cycle. 
Every night, 116,000 Australians sleep 'rough' and experience homelessness
. Of those around 9,000 West Australians are having 
to experience this on a daily basis. 
What's even worse is a growing number of children under 12
 are experiencing homelessness.

This Sleepout will be the 3rd year I'll be participating in
 and collectively within the past 2 years
 I've managed to raise over $6,000 for this amazing cause. 
This year in 2019 I'm looking to raise over $5,000 for the homeless
. If you'd like to support the cause please follow the link:

To the Mundaring Rotary Club,

Thank you all for supporting us in getting a new blue "Daddy Bear Bed"

. Our resident artist is currently on leave, but she will be back in 2 weeks' time;
 when the club name will be added to the end of the bed.
