A BIG THANK YOU TO OUR GENEROUS NEIGHBOURS! - A successful community project to round-off the 2023-24 program.
Eltham Rotarians did a letterbox drop inviting their neighbours to donate to a Canned Food Drive in their local streets on 22nd June. Those who were able gave generously. All donations, whether large or small, came together to make a collective result of over 2,000 cans of food delivered to the Manningham Carenet/Diamond Valley Community Support Food Collective Project. The project serves people in need across Nillumbik, Banyule and Manningham. What a generous community we live in!
Many neighbours left notes of thanks for the opportunity Rotary gave them to participate. Some other neighbours who slept-in or forgot the collection time (or day!) rang their Rotarian neighbour and dropped-off their late donations to them.
This is a great project to increase community awareness of Rotary and show how we can work with our neighbours to provide support for those doing it tough in these times of high housing and living costs.
What a result for a couple of hours input!
