Rotary club seeks more members

Members volunteer their time to help others

Rotary Brisbane Water is actively seeking new members to join its ranks as the service club looks to expand its vital work throughout the Central Coast.

The well-established club, which has been serving the community since 2019, is keen to welcome fresh faces and new perspectives to help tackle the growing needs of the area.

“We’re at an exciting juncture where we have the opportunity to significantly increase our impact,” Membership Director Mitchell Gordon said.

“With more hands on deck, we can take on larger projects and reach more people who need our support.”

Rotary Brisbane Water has built a strong reputation for its diverse range of community initiatives, from supporting local schools and youth programs to organising fundraising events for charitable causes.

The club’s members regularly volunteer their time and skills for projects that make a tangible difference to local residents.

The organisation is particularly interested in attracting members from various professional backgrounds and age groups, recognising that diversity strengthens its ability to address community challenges effectively.

Whether you’re a recent graduate looking to give back, a seasoned professional wanting to share your expertise, or someone simply passionate about making a positive difference, there’s a place for you in Rotary.

“What makes Rotary special is the combination of local action and global impact,” Public Image Director Di Bartok said.

“We’re working on projects right here in our community whilst also supporting international humanitarian efforts.

“It’s incredibly rewarding to see the direct results of our collective efforts.”

Membership offers numerous benefits beyond the satisfaction of community service.

Members develop leadership skills, build professional networks, and form lasting friendships with like-minded individuals.

The club’s regular meetings provide opportunities for personal growth through guest speakers, training sessions, and collaborative project planning.

The organisation operates on the principle of “Service Above Self” and members contribute through a variety of means — whether through hands-on volunteering, professional expertise, fundraising efforts, or simply spreading awareness about important causes.

For those interested in learning more about joining Rotary Brisbane Water, the club welcomes prospective members to attend a meeting as guests.

This provides an excellent opportunity to meet current members, learn about ongoing projects, and discover how your particular skills and interests might contribute to the charity’s mission.

“We’re not just looking for people to fill seats,” Vice President Jayne Mote said.

“We want individuals who are genuinely excited about making a positive impact and who bring their own ideas and energy to our collective efforts.”

With the Central Coast continuing to grow and evolve, the need for strong community organisations has never been greater.

Rotary Brisbane Water’s expansion plans include supporting more local schools, increasing youth development programs, and tackling environmental challenges facing the region.

Anyone interested in joining Rotary Brisbane Water or learning more about its work is encouraged to call Mitch on 0402 588 867.

The club meets regularly and welcomes visitors who want to see firsthand what modern Rotary membership involves.

In a time when community connection feels more important than ever, Rotary Brisbane Water offers a meaningful way to contribute to positive change while building relationships with fellow community-minded individuals.

The question isn’t whether the Central Coast needs more community support — it’s whether you’re ready to be part of the solution.
