Many members will be aware that Camcare, located in St John's Avenue, Camberwell, is a community organisation of professionals and volunteers. Camcare's paid staff and up to 200 volunteers provide services to people in Boroondara who have low incomes, and are experiencing social disadvantage or personal adversity.
Our Club has assisted in various ways over the years. We have provided toiletry and personal hygiene packs for homeless individuals as well delivering donated fresh food from the Ashwood Woolworths store. We have also assisted in the garden by demolishing an unwanted shed and removing a large of accumulated rubbish. Now there is a new opportunity to help out - click on Read more... below.
The Glenferrie RC Community Group, after liaising with Camcare, has offered to provide assistance during the morning of the last Thursday of each month as a trial for the next 6 months. Camcare staff require assistance with client reception, help with food distribution and setting up a BBQ.
