As referred to in a recent email, members and friends are invited to take part in Rotary Central Melbourne's annual Christmas Hamper Appeal by filling bags with specific grocery items for Steps Outreach Service and Uniting Asylum Seeker Project (please refer to the flyer).
In relation to hamper bags, Neville John will have a supply of hamper bags with him at every in-person event over the coming weeks, but you may also use your own. Remember to place a red tag on Steps Outreach hampers and a green tag on Uniting ASP. Please contact Neville (nrjohn@iprimus.com.au
The Community Service Committee has also offered to assist those who want to donate hampers but are unable to shop, in which case a donation of $50 per bag should be be made to the RCM bank account. We need to keep track of all donations so please let Neville or Rebecca know if you are planning to use this offer as soon as possible. The RCM banking details are:
- BSB: 033000 (Westpac)
- Account number: 791085
The collection and distribution of hampers has changed. Hampers will be distributed to representatives of Steps and Uniting ASP after the RCM Christmas breakfast on 9th December 2025. As mentioned in the email, your hampers will either need be dropped off to one of the Community Service Committee members mentioned, or you can arrange with Neville to have them collected.
