During December 2023 the Community Service group assembled 28 Christmas Hampers that were donated to the Salvation Army on behalf of the Club. It was pleasing to receive acknowledgement of our contribution. The contents of each hamper were very similar and we closely adhered to the suggestions made by Norman Gale, Coordinator of community Services, Salvation Army, Camberwell.

We are thrilled to announce that, at its meeting on February 22nd 2024, the Board of The Rotary Club of Glenferrie voted to become an official District 9800 Peacebuilder club, and to form a Peacebuilder Committee under the leadership of Foundation Director Garfield Lee. The move aligns the club with one of the key foundation principles of Rotary and with the first Area of Focus of The Rotary Foundation: The Promotion of Peace. It also aligns the club with the priorities of Rotary District 9800, which has been an official Peacebuilder District for the past two decades.

There was no missing the club's stand at this year's Glenferrie Festival. The eye-catching Rotary booth was marked with a giant teardrop banner that could be seen the length of Glenferrie Road. This year's Glenferrie Festival was a huge success, with thousands of residents and visitors taking advantage of the beautiful sunny day to throng the street and enjoy fine food, music, fun rides and to share community bonds.
