Special May Bulletin 2023 (May 23, 2023)

Presidents Update

Greetings GNMRC Members
Hello to you all from

President Mavis Mulaudzi

Hello fellow Rotarians

Major initiative for the club - Turkish Student Nurse Fundraiser

All members are encouraged to participate in some way in this initiative. Hold a fund raising event, visit a local Rotary Club and give a presentation and / or promote our initiative on your social media and in your workplaces. We will establish a Go Fund Me link which we envisage will make it easier for people to make donations to our club for the Turkish Student Nurse Fund Raiser and other projects we identify.

In this special club bulletin we provide more information about the 2 day conference in July organised by Sue. Please promote the conference, we need more delegates.

Our writing group of Marie, Shehla, Dolly & Wendy have started to work on the e-cook book and need your help with the content, please see the information below.

Here is the first video that we have produced which we use to promote what we, as a Rotary Club, are doing to assist our Turkish student nurse colleagues. Please forward and invite colleagues to view the video to assist us.

Nursing Essentials Conference on the 20th & 21st July

Here is the link for the 2 day conference that is being organised by Sue (thank you) and as you know some of our members have volunteered their time to be involved over the 2 days. For those of you who live in Qld especially please forward this link to colleagues and invite them to come along.

We also now have a page on our website dedicated to the fund raiser and I invite all of you to invite colleagues to share the link and reason for the conference.

Global Nurses & Midwives Rotary Club - GNMRC e-Cook Book - a project all members of the club can participate in

Our writing team Maria, Shehla, Dolly and Wendy are delighted to say we are now ready to do the next step in our GNMRC e-cook book. Please open the attachment below to find out more information and also to see the information that the writing time invite you to present to us in order to create the e-book. We envisage our readers will be Rotarians, nursing & midwifery colleagues and more general public who like cooking and stories.

Gold Coast Benji

Some members met Gold Coast Benji at one of our meetings in 2021.

Benji has raised millions of dollars for various charities over a number of years.

Benji and his handler Karin Kolenko have volunteered to assist us. Rotarian Jules will liaise with Karin re same https://goldcoastbenji.com.au/

We need you, our members, to make this the best Rotary Club possible.

One other fundraising possibility. We would appreciate if someone could volunteer to coordinate the following:

Gold Coin Donation day

The role would require a member to contact universities / hospitals / professional bodies about our Turkish Student Nurse Fundraiser and the club and invite them to have a Gold Coin Awareness Day to assist our colleagues in Turkey.

Please contact Jules at jules.aitken2@bigpond.com or Louise at woundtherapies@gmail.com if you wish to volunteer.

Let us all work together to make this the best possible Rotary Club we can.
