Welcome to the Perth Rotary Club.
Manager Peter received another sapphire pin to his Paul Harris Fellow
Administrator Heather received another sapphire pin for her enormous contribution
to the market and many other club
projects.
We know we now only have two countries still with the Wild Polio Virus,
and this year we are also celebrating the life of
Past Rotary International President Sir Clem Renouf,
who brought 1.2 million people together and
made the promise to rid the world of Polio.
We would like to set a challenge to all clubs in District 9465
to walk, run or roll 10, 20, or 50km
or further throughout the month of October
and raise vital funds that will help eradicate and prepare us
for a Polio free world.
It would be amazing if each Club could set up a team
and challenge other clubs in our
District.
Refer
the link below to set up a team for your club.
https://www.rotarywalkwithus.org/how
The District Leadership team under the guidance
of PDG Jodie Sparks has commenced a team
and if you do not wish to be part of a team but would like to donate
or sponsor the District team then please follow the link below
and look for D9465 Dawdlers.
https://www.rotarywalkwithus.org/fundraiser/d9465dawdlers
All donations go to the team total. Individuals, clubs and districts
will be identified with RI via The Australian Rotary Foundation Trust
and recognised for the donations.
Be part of something special: "Walk With Us" this October
for those that can’t.
Be part of the end game strategy and raise funds
to help make Polio history
. Ensuring that no child ever again will be threatened
by Polio.
I look forward to your support, and please share this great initiative
with your
members, family, friends and colleagues
.
Thank
you for your continued support

CALLING #5
NOW IT’S UP TO EACH AND EVERY CLUB TO BRING THIS CAMP TO LIFE
Since my last post the committee has continued to tick boxes
and make progress regretfully more slowly than we would
like.
It is now only 4 weeks until nominations close
so hopefully you will surprise us with a flood of names
in
the following weeks.
Our thanks to Hannans-Kalgoorlie, Mill Point and Margaret River Clubs
who have found Campers and a Buddy as well as
Bunbury, Kwinana, Rockingham and Byford who have made donations.
We need at least 15 of each to make the camp to go ahead.
Can’t wait to hear from your club.

Service has long been recognised as a fundamental feature
of Rotary membership.
But neither Rotary nor any of the other major service organisations
have been able to gain a meaningful handle on the actual scale
or economic value of the volunteer effort they mobilise.
Now, an international report has powerfully demonstrated
the significant renewable resource of volunteering that
service organisations like
Rotary are generating.
The recent worldwide study on the ‘The Scope and
Scale of Rotary Volunteering’,
conducted by the John Hopkins Centre for Civil Society Studies
found that:
• Rotary’s 1.2 million members volunteered a
total of nearly
5.8 million hours in the four-week reference period.
Taking out the hours of volunteering associated with World Polio Day
, which fell in the survey reference period
, Rotary members accounted for close
to 5.1 million
hours of volunteering.
• Rotary annually mobilises volunteer effort
equivalent
to nearly 27,000 full-time paid workers.
• Rotary volunteers save communities an
estimated US$850 million
in service costs per year.
• Our members are responsible for 47 million
hours
of volunteering per year.
• Average volunteer hours per month varied by
region,
with the average hours in Australia and New Zealand being six.

With 2020 being a hard year for many of us, we hope to round off the year
on a sweeter note with a Wine & Cheese night.
We can't deny it's difficult to truly open up and talk about our mental health
. Our wine and cheese night aims to break down the barriers
or stigma behind mental health.
Instead, we want to raise awareness of mental-wellbeing
and encourage open conversation.
Bring a bottle of wine, an open heart and an open mind.
Let's enjoy some lovely wine and cheese in good company
with our fellow
Rotaract friends.
Tickets will be limited.
