Mental Health Pack Packing

A team of willing Rotary Hawthorn workers gathered on Tuesday to pack Mental Health Packs for distribution to hospital mental health units. Evidence suggests that not all packers are equal. The question is, is Noel two packs behind Julie or one in front?
Rotary Hawthorn Christmas 2023 Projects 
 
Support for Camcare Update
 
Thanks to all the members who were able to bring to the meeting today lots of non-perishable food and other items for donation to Camcare for distribution to those in most need in the community. Thanks to those who promised to bring in items next week and of course, those who have donated cash.
 
By way of reminder ….
 
 
Our friends at Camcare have advised that donations of food and groceries have dropped considerably during the course of the year, reducing Camcare’s normally robust supplies of emergency relief goods. (Apparently, most emergency relief providers are experiencing this).
 
The impact is so dire that Camcare has decided to concentrate on continuing to provide food staples and essentials rather than providing Christmas treats.
 
The request is for members to purchase a few extra items of non-perishables when they shop to support Camcare in providing emergency food relief.
 
Katrina
Evie Flynn, a 14-year-old student from MLC, spoke at this week's meeting. She's about to begin an amazing journey as a Rotary exchange student in France. Her upcoming adventure will have her living in a small village named Fleurbaix, close to the border with Belgium. This area has historical ties to Australia. Her host club in France is called Le Club de Montière.
 
A group comprising Hawthorn Rotarians, partners and Maya Dissanayake, made the Club’s second trip to Nhill last weekend.  The country hospitality was again exemplary. It makes you proud to be an Aussie.
 
The main party travelled in convoy, stopping for morning tea at Beaufort. In contrast, others had made a long weekend of it and spent time in Horsham and the surrounds on Friday or as with the Roses, looking fit and tanned, meandered in from Adelaide at the end of their big Australian caravan tour. The initial gathering took place at Mr Le café for Vietnamese lunch. We were welcomed by
 President Mary Dalgleish, who, with her team, including District 9870 DGN Christine Dufty, had organised a full program.
