Making a difference... you can too
If you give people the opportunity they can achieve outstanding things. 
 
It's this simple philosophy that inspires a lot of the work Applecross Rotary does, locally and further afield. 
 
Our members come from all walks of life - we're engineers, lawyers, marketeers, scientists, educators, farmers and retailers, the list goes on - and we range in age from our early 20s through to mid 80s. The commonality we share is an interest in using our time, skills and energy to improve the lives of others . And we like to have fun while we do it!
 
Our projects are equally varied. From our much-loved Rotary Jacaranda Festival, the Pride of Workmanship Awards, a local Art Show and Sale, numerous youth initiatives as well as supporting indigenous, mental health and women's refuge projects and delivering major health and water based projects that will save lives.... we're an ambitious club with the power to get things done. 
 
GET IN TOUCH
Applecross Rotary meets weekly but we've embraced a more flexible approach to membership. 
 
We meet on Tuesday mornings at 7am for a 7.30am start, at the Dome Café, Deep Water Point, Mt Pleasant. and via ZOOM  for our members and guests who cannot make the meetings in person. 
 
If you would like to join us send an email to secretary@applecrossrotary.org
 
 We love to welcome visitors so feel free to get in touch and arrange to come along to one of our meetings or regular social events to try us on for size. If you're interested in finding our more about becoming a member please drop us a line.
 
Club News
BIG things happen when Rotarian's CONNECT!
Feb 27, 2023
 
Wednesday saw the official opening of the new ambulant toilet block in the newly build special needs unit at Noonkopir Township Primary School, Kitengela, Kenya.
This project was a cooperation between Applecross Rotary, Rotary Club of Embakasi, Mama Respond International and the Rotary Foundation.
Many Rotary Clubs in Western Australia provided funding support.
Another wonderful example of international cooperation between Rotary teams to help children with special needs in Kenya.
Great thanks to Wangu, Risper, Paul, Dr Patrisio and Erin.
 
 
 
WEAR YOUR ROTARY SHIRT DAY
 
 
D9465 has for several years promoted the no-cost publicity of ALL Rotarians wearing their Rotary shirts on the 23 February, Paul Harris’s Birthday. The event has been followed by several other Districts around the World but still needs clubs to be reminded to get involved. This initiative was started by a group of our AGs and is an easy way of showing Rotary in our community and inviting the conversation of ‘What is Rotary”. Ideally, the Rotary shirt would be worn all day as the Rotarians go about their daily business, not just at a Rotary meeting.


 
Community Service Award to Monica Morunga

At the recent MCCC Business After Hours co-hosted by Applecross Rotary and MarketLife, we took the opportunity to present a Community Service Award to Monica Morunga who has set up a charity, Feed it Forward, that feeds thousands of familys every month. Feed it Forward started collecting from a few local stores around Baldivis but has since grown to collect from over 90 places across WA and has more than 300 volunteers.  The Club also donated $1000 to the 'Feed It Forward' charity.
