Adding to our diversity
For quite a while now, the North Melbourne Rotary Club has been known as the most diverse Rotary Club in Melbourne and probably in Australia, but it is now even more so.
We recently increased our membership numbers from 15 to 18 by inducting three new members being Fatuma Ali, Abdullahi Osman and Ibrahim Abdi.
Fatuma arrived in Australia as a refugee from Ethiopia and Ibrahim and Abdullahi as refugees from Somalia (pictured).
Another new member, Herbson Singo, who is from Malawi, just had the exciting experience of being re-united with his wife and young twin boys who he had been apart from for some years.
Late last year our club was represented by members Neville and Judy Page, as well as Fatuma Ali and Sainab Sheikh, although Sainab was really present as the host of a special information and presentation function at the Kensington Town Hall. At that function both Neville and the Club as a whole were presented with Certificates of Appreciation for the assistance they had provided to the Somalian Women’s Development Association (SWDA).
New members are very welcome. Please contact Neville Page on 0414 673 611 or [email protected] •
