Last month at the Ku-ring-gai Rotary Changeover dinner, I joined Anthony Rigney from KYDS Youth Counselling and Elizabeth Lovell from Lifeline Harbour to Hawkesbury Sydney in (unexpectedly) receiving Honourary Memberships in recognition of the partnerships that our organisations have with the Rotary Club of Ku-ring-gai.
Ku-ring-gai Rotary has actively been in service for over 60 years and their members support the community through fundraising efforts such as the Lindfield Fun Run, the Gordon Markets, and the Bobbin Head Cycle Classic.
In 2023 they raised and distributed over $100,000 to local charities such as KYDS and Lifeline as well as other causes such as the National Centre for Childhood Grief, the Early Education Toy Library, Dreams 2live4., and a project in the Pacific Islands. They also donated funds for a picnic shelter defibrillator at West Pymble and co-ordinated the dementia friendly cafe at West Pymble.
They would welcome anyone to join their efforts and you can find out more about them on their website or call Malcolm Braid on 0400 528 604. https://www.kuringgairotary.org.au
