Rotary Inner Melbourne Emergency Relief Network (RIMERN) a warehouse in Brunswick needs more volunteers on the first Monday of each month for the Rotary Melbourne's volunteering day. Volunterring involves collecting, storing, sorting and delivering household goods for rehomed refugees, family violence victims and homeless.
We have a new volunteering opportunity on Thursday 9th July from 8:15am to 1:30pm at the Magpie Nest café, Ground Floor, 69 Bourke Street, Melbourne (entrance via Westwood Place) helping to prepare and serve breakfast to homeless people in the city.
Rotarians, we need your nominations. Let’s find an outstanding volunteer worthy of the Sir John Reid Community Service Award. We all hear about or come across dedicated volunteers who fly under the radar, who do not receive due recognition, despite years of unstinting effort.
