Bellbowrie we hear you!

The Rotary Flood Relief will provide Humanitarian Aid for the worst natural disaster in Australian history! Our community has answered the call.

The people of Bellbowrie and Moggill are calling themselves the forgotten ones. Neville Marsh, who is coordinating the recovery in Bellbowrie said that there are about 90 houses totalled by the flood. "There are only house frames left". Bellbowrie needs Builders, carpenters, any trades to do with building houses. 

A team of volunteers headed by Rotarian Don Rosenfeld are on their way north to Bellbowrie where the community is in great need. Through the generosity of the community including BNI the relief team will be well stocked with donations of buckets, brooms, vacs, tools and loads of electrical materials to begin repairs.

Further teams will be needed in the future, especially in Rural Areas. You do not need to be a Rotarian to join a team. The advantage of traveling with a Rotary Team is that you will be fully covered by Rotary Insurance and you will be working with locals and local Rotary Clubs. It’s a hands on down to earth experience.

A huge thank you to the members of BNI for your generous donations.  BNI is the largest business networking organisation in the world. BNI offer members the opportunity to share ideas, contacts and most importantly, business referrals.  They meet at the Builders Club at Dee Why on Wednesday mornings.
