North Balwyn Rotary Club is part of a 1.2 million strong global organisation that ostensibly does the work of an aid organisation. 

 

We’re dedicated to making a difference in our local community and beyond. Our projects take us from gardening for local elderly people in need, to changing the lives of impoverished villagers in Vietnam through providing water filtration systems.  

 

Giving service is one of the more rewarding and healthful activities you can do. Everyone has a skill. Your skills, knowledge, energy and enthusiasm are a valuable resource. Why not use these through membership of Rotary and achieve extraordinary outcomes for the benefit of others.   

 

Rotary is about doing good in communities. All the work of a Rotarian is voluntary. Interestingly, volunteering not only makes a difference to those who are struggling in the world, it also affects the wellbeing of the volunteer. Studies show that it can reduce pain, depression, lower blood pressure, enhance lifespan and happiness.  

 

Membership is open to women and men of all ages who have a desire to serve the community.  If you think you'd like to be involved please contact Ian for a chat on 0419 359 920 or email info@rotarynorthbalwyn.com.au

The eradication of polio is one of our longest standing and most significant efforts. Along with our partners, we have helped immunize more than 2.5 billion children against polio in 122 countries. We have reduced polio cases by 99.9 percent worldwide and we won't stop until we end the disease for good.

$1.00 immunises a child.  We are filling these jars with $2.00 coins at meetings and the proceeds will multiply with matching dollars from other sources and this jar will become $1,500.

So all $2.00 coins are needed at each meeting!!
