Humanitarian Projects International
Jul 16, 2019
My Journey began in 2006 after seeing a performance of a Ugandan children's choir from the Watoto Ministries. Soon after, I joined with other like minded people to form an organisation called Mission Watoto Australia. From this small beginning WM underwent a name change and a restructure and became Humantarian Projects International Inc. As HPI we were not restricted to Uganda and were able to branch out to different areas of the world where we could continue to assist orphans and other disadvantaged people. More to come at the meeting on the 16th July. |

Rosies (Friends on the Street)
Sep 10, 2019
My name is Carolyn Wilson. I have been a volunteer with the Caloundra branch of Rosies – Friends on the Street for 18 years and the majority of that time as the Co-ordinator. I was acknowledged as a Life Member in November 2017 in recognition of my ongoing contribution to Rosies. I have a passion for helping the homeless and those less fortunate than myself. Rosies reaches out to those most in need, those people who are abandoned, marginalised, socially isolated within our communities. On The Street Volunteers are asked to commit to 4 hours once a month to outreach. Each volunteer is assigned to a team and each team goes out on to the street once a month. The location is always the same so that our patrons, friends on the street, know where we will be and when. The team meets at the branch base at the designated time and over the course of an hour they catch up with each other to develop the sense of community and family that we take on to the street. They prepare the van, share relevant information and review recent street reports so they know what has been happening on the street. The Team Leader conducts a simple reflection with the team and leads the Rosies prayer, then the team travels to the outreach location together in the Rosies van. The team spends two hours on the street sharing friendship with a simple drink and a bite to eat. After two hours the outreach is concluded and the team travels back to base together in the Rosies van. The team, unpacks, cleans up and has a debrief before leaving for home. |

Sundale have been caring for our elders for over five decades. Along the way we’ve developed the wisdom, infrastructure, practices and financial security to offer a wide range of lifestyles, services and care for all members of the community. Sundale was born and nurtured on the Sunshine Coast. The selfless enthusiasm of the Nambour Apex Club, supported by other service clubs and the generosity of our community, raised the funds to lay the first brick in our first care centre in 1963.

Based on the Sunshine Coast, and with all operational decisions made locally by the local team, Sundale is able to adapt to general and specifically directed needs to better serve our communities. |

As a school teacher, mother of four, and grandmother of four, Cathy has always been an advocate for helping children to reach their full potential. After a short visit to Kenya in 2010, Cathy returned to Australia determined to start her own charity to combat child abandonment and orphaned children.

Hear the difficulties of running the Umoja Project in a poverty stricken area of Kenya . Cathy will speak about how Umoja is so much more than just a children’s home. Umoja is a project which also helps the community, and how the support of Rotary and Rotarian Volunteers, has helped her team truly achieve the extraordinary while Cathy has continued to work full time up until the end of June this year in her profession, whilst overseeing the project from Australia. Cathy returns to Kenya twice a year to take Rotary Volunteers and other volunteers to the project.
