Over the November-December festive season, thanks to Rotary’s support network, Give a Feed rocketed past its 2022 target of 3,000 family hampers, to reach an impressive 4,300 hampers. A fantastic result, as the most recent campaign raised over $129,000.
‘The Karrinyup Rotary Youth Service team has established a ‘Back to School 2023’ grant to assist children of Ukrainian Displaced persons living in Western Australia. Its purpose is to help cover the expenses of funding their back-to-school requirements for 2023 (books, fees, uniforms etc). Families can apply for a grant of $200 for local children, who have settled here after fleeing the war in Ukraine. To be eligible, they must have the 769 visa that applies to DP’s from Ukraine. Applications on the attached form should be made to the club email karrinyuprotary@gmail.com. The Youth committee will assess the applications for approval.’
Please share so we can reach those in need through the Rotary network.
The Form and photo is attached. The article with link to the download the form is on the front page of Latest News on the Karrinyup Rotary website.
‘My Home’ Update November 2022
‘My Home’ is an extraordinary and immediate response to the housing crisis. Eighteen small low impact homes are currently being built with completion due in February 2023. These will house women over 55, who would otherwise be homeless. Rotary Clubs in District 9455 have undertaken to provide furniture and household goods. There is now the opportunity to make the houses more personal and homely with bedding, linen, towels, kitchen equipment, etc. Help has come from many areas but further funding is needed. See how you can help.
