Rotary Fellowships amplify Ukrainian relief efforts

In November 2021, a new chapter of the International Fellowships

 of Flying Rotarians was chartered in Lviv, Ukraine.

 Within months, war broke out with Russia and the new friendships

 became critical connections for support and supplies.

 Rotary’s global network has sent millions of dollars’ worth of 

 relief and medical supplies to help the people of Ukraine.

Read how Rotary Fellowships, 

which bring together members who have a shared interest or hobby,

 have amplified the impact of these efforts.

 
















What started out as simply collecting socks for the homeless

 this winter grew into something much more, 

due to the wonderful contributions and generous donations

 of our amazing local residents, as well as support from the

Rotary Club of Karrinyup.

 Working closely with the Perth City Homeless Group

the club’s Homeless Working Group was able to provide,

 not only over 300 pairs of socks for distribution but also managed

 to put together 32 backpacks for men and women

 for donation to the needy.

 Each backpack carried a tag identifying that it was a donation 

from the Rotary Club of Karrinyup.

 Recently these were delivered for distribution by the

 Perth City Homeless Support Group.

 

According to the Zero Project, in December 2021 there were 1,001

 people known to be living homeless in Perth and Fremantle. 

We know that number to be increasing at an alarming rate.

What a wonderful surprise we had at our meeting this morning,

 when we were joined by Troy.

 What amazing connections we can make through Rotary programmes.
