We are a very busy Club - below is a snapshot of the projects that we are currently involved in.
Disaster Fund
Shelter Box is an exceptional organisation that our Club has partnered with. They provide emergency relief to people around the world who have been made homeless by natural disasters and conflict.
We have pledged to fund five Shelter Boxes each year for the next 5 years. The cost is $1000 per Shelter Box and we raise funds for this through raffles and events held at Education Conferences conducted by the Nurses for Nurses Network and Education at Sea.
Wendy McIntosh and Cecelia Flom head up this project.
The Florence Nightingale International Foundation (FNIF), the charitable arm of ICN, launched the Girl Child Education Fund (GCEF) in 2005 with the mission of supporting access to education for the orphaned daughters of nurses in developing countries.
The Rotary Solar Case has been developed, first and foremost, to provide light in remote health centres, aiding health workers where the availability of electricity is problematic at the best of times. The ability to provide portable lights for village birthing assistants is a major priority in areas where women often give birth in village huts or village health centres where the light from kerosene lanterns or mobile phones is otherwise the best available alternative.
Tracy Martin is the Project Lead for the work being undertaken with the Aminat Foundation for Club Midwives to act as mentors for midwives in Sierra Leone.
We are seeking expressions of interest from nurses and midwives to be part of the Sierra Leone/ Aminata Foundation mentoring project. We are still in the early stages of this project, but if you are able to provide time to become a mentor for one or two midwives based in Sierra Leone please send your details to Tracy Martin tracy.martin@health.wa.gov.au.
We have created a Global Nurses and Midwives Club Brochure that we can use to give out to people in they are interested in joining us or want to know what we are about.
Please have a look at the Brochure and distribute it to Nurses and Midwives who you think would be interested in Joining our Club.
