All Bunnings NSW stores are planning to host a community market event on the 9th of December from 6-8pm.
The Rotary Club of North Ryde has been asked to hold a Rotary awareness stall at Gladesville. Bunnings is supporting us with a spinning wheel with chocolates/gift cards on it as a fun game. The customer just spins the wheel for a gold coin donation then whatever it lands on they get e.g. a chocolate or a Bunnings gift card – all supplied by Bunnings.
There will be a sausage sizzle with dessert trucks, Santa and loads of entertainment.
Garry will be in touch to organise volunteers for the night,

Most Rotarians know about the Centurion and Paul Harris Fellow recognition programs for individuals who make donations to The Rotary Foundation. But, did you know about the new recognition programs that honour Rotary Clubs for making donations?
The idea is to encourage your club to allocate a share of your club’s fund-raising project income to Rotary’s own charity – The Rotary Foundation – in addition to the special causes that you are passionate about.
The Club Giving Awards honour the Clubs that donated at least $5000 to The Rotary Foundation’s Annual Fund, and/or that donated at least $2200 to the End Polio Now Fund.
For the year ending June 2021, the Awardees were:
 |  |
Lower Blue Mountains Northbridge Chatswood Roseville Lane Cove Carlingford West Pennant Hills & Cherrybrook Ryde Mosman | Lower Blue Mountains Northbridge Chatswood Roseville North Ryde The Hills-Kellyville Nepean Turramurra Pennant Hills Blackheath |
As you plan your club’s fund-raisers for this Rotary year, we ask you to set aside 10% of the amount raised for these two Rotary Foundation programs. The Annual Fund is our “seed bank” that returns money to our district for club-directed projects. The Polio Fund is vital to ensure that polio is finally eradicated from the planet.

Rotary is a worldwide organisation of more than 1.2 million business, professional, and community leaders. Members of Rotary clubs, known as Rotarians, provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace in the world.
There are 34,000 Rotary clubs in more than 200 countries and geographical areas. Clubs are non-political, nonreligious, and open to all cultures, races, and creeds. As signified by the motto “Service above Self”, Rotary’s main objective is service — in the community, in the workplace, and throughout the world.
OBJECT OF ROTARY
The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise and, in particular, to encourage and foster:
•FIRST: The development of acquaintance as an opportunity for service;
•SECOND: High ethical standards in business and professions; the recognition of the worthiness of all useful occupations; and the dignifying of each Rotarian’s occupation as an opportunity to serve society;
•THIRD: The application of the ideal of service in each Rotarian’s personal, business, and community life;
•FOURTH: The advancement of international understanding, goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service.
THE FOUR-WAY TEST
Of the things we think, say & do:
1. Is it the truth?
2. Is it fair to all concerned?
3. Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
4. Will it be beneficial to all concerned?
