At our launch in early July 2022, we began our work with the Suitcase Parade, raising funds and purchasing new suitcases for children in the local Foster Care system.
Many children entering or moving within the foster care system have their few items transported in rubbish bags. We aim to give these children the dignity of their own new suitcases, which remain with them for their time in the system. It’s a small way to make a positive effect on their lives and a project we remain committed to.
We also run the annual South Burnett Training Awards, looking to promote business and training in the South Burnett and have long term plans for other initiatives making South Burnett the place to live.
What is Rotary?
Rotary is a global network of 1.4 million neighbors, friends, leaders, and problem-solvers who see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change – across the globe, in our communities, and in ourselves.
Solving real problems takes real commitment and vision. For more than 110 years, Rotary’s people of action have used their passion, energy, and intelligence to take action on sustainable projects. From literacy and peace to water and health, we are always working to better our world, and we stay committed to the end.
