Conflict and violence displaced more than 68 million people in the past year, and half of those are children.
We refuse to accept conflict as a way of life. Rotary projects provide training that fosters understanding and provides communities with the skills to resolve conflicts.
HOW ROTARY MAKES HELP HAPPEN
Through our service projects, peace fellowships, and scholarships, our members are taking action to address the underlying causes of conflict, including poverty, inequality, ethnic tension, lack of access to education, and unequal distribution of resources.

The Garage Sale 2018
We have just had our best and most successful Garage Sale on the weekend of 13 & 14 October raising a record gross - north of $35k.
Excellent Project Management and a large number of dedicated volunteers, some putting in hours of effort, in the weeks before the weekend contributed to this result. |

The partners present were Rob, Helen, Jill, Bev and Anne. Thomas gave us an insight about being a Rotary Ambassadorial Scholar.
Thank you to Bill and the BBQ team for turning out a short notice to run a short notice BBQ at Bunnings Dural last Sunday. Bill, Kerry, Peter Stanton, Keith, Janelle, Colin McGowan, Andrew added $602 to our fundraising account. Then Ros, Gino, Bev, Bob, Jill, David, Anne and myself had a fabulous time weekend at Oberon and Jenolan Caves. The self-drive approach worked well. The District Conference group has settled on the dress theme for Rotary Rocks at the dinner and the decoration for the gnome. Next week is Youth and Partners night so please come along and hear from our RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Awareness Program), RYPEN Rotary Youth Program and of Enrichment and Youth Exchange young people. |
