The Salisbury City Rotaract Club held its belated
changeover in August and elected Emily Kate Harman
as the 8th President of the club. The club is already
embarking on its latest project in support of STEPtember
to help sufferers of cerebral palsy.
The club has set a target of 10,000 steps per member
every day in September to raise $5000 to purchase a
wheelchair. Halfway through the month they had already exceeded their target so the future looks very
exciting for their first project of the year.
Adelaide University Rotaract has just held its signature
event with the very successful 2021 Cultural Night which
was a sell out with 350 in attendance including many
Rotarians. This year the guests sampled dishes from
13 different countries and enjoyed a multitude of cultural
music, dancing and displays. The club’s fundraising project
to help improve education outcomes in rural Zimbabwe
managed to raise over $14,000 from the night.
