President Beverley Callander
Welcome to Rotary, Perth.
Why would YOU join Rotary? – Well, for a start you are reading this.
Before I joined, I knew very little about Rotary. However, it soon became clear
that I could identify with the core values and causes of the Rotarian ideal
(see below). I am delighted to be the
President of this club which is active, dynamic and caring. However, we also
have a lot of fun, because fellowship is a very important aspect of being a
Rotarian.
The motto is “Service before Self, in other words, help others who are less
fortunate than you. Can YOU identify with that?
How does joining Rotary achieve this aim? : By joining together with the other
1.4 million members in the world who all share that view.
Did YOU know that Rotary International has almost eradicated Polio throughout
the world? But still there is yet more to do. Yes, YOU in Perth, would be part
of that fantastic achievement and can assist in other international and local
projects too.
Since 1917 our club has been involved in the community with annual fundraising
giving grants to local good causes and charities as well as supporting projects
at home and abroad.
Anyone can become a Rotarian. We meet for lunch each Thursday, but we also
have monthly breakfast and evening meetings. We aim to be accessible to all
members and have no minimum attendance.
We welcome individual and corporate/business members. Our club is 65 person
strong and we always aim to grow. YOU
will have skills to improve how we support the community and have ideas about
other projects which are important and close to YOUR heart. How good would it
feel to know that YOU had inspired a project and had taken it through to
completion? The only step YOU have to take to achieve that dream is to join
Rotary.
Our club is full of members, who are people of action, non-discriminatory,
non-political, non-religious, and most importantly, friendly. Do YOU think that
these sound like the kind of people YOU could work with?
