Australian Rotary Health

As we turn another month over on the calendar, it not only draws us closer to Winter and the end of another Financial Year.  May is also a time to celebrate the only home-grown program recognised by the Australian Rotary Club themed calendar; Australian Rotary Health (ARH).  Of the 1,136 Rotary Clubs in Australia, 95% have supported the work of ARH by:
  • Hosting fundraising events, such as bike rides, golf  days and other creative initiatives;
  • Becoming Funding Partners for Mental Health PhD Scholarships, Indigenous Health Scholarships or Rural Medical and Nursing Scholarships;
  • Making general donations which are pooled together to fund research into the preventions, treatments and cures for mental illness;
  • Hosting a Hat Day event in October (save the date in 2014 for Friday, 10) www.hatday.com.au.

ARH has expended over $33 million on research into SIDS, Bowel Cancer, Breast Cancer, Motor Neurone Disease, Diabetes and a variety of health areas for over 31 years.  In 2000, they directed
funds into Mental Health research; as 45% of the Australian population will suffer a mental illness during their lifetime and it is now a leading cause of disease burden in our country.

Will you help us?

As the Financial Year comes to an end, we encourage all Rotary Clubs to consider making a donation to the work of Australian Rotary Health.  Your funds will be used to help us improve the lives of those least able to assist themselves.
