Plenty of spare chairs at RIMERN but no sitting down on the job for Rotarians David Fallick and Lawrie Mann
The Rotary Club of Glenferrie has been an enthusiastic supporter of RIMERN (Rotary Inner Melbourne Emergency Relief Network) since we commenced providing four volunteers each month more than three years ago.
So much has happened during that time. More than twenty social support agencies now refer clients and RIMERN provides items of furniture, white goods, bedding etc. to several clients per week. A truck for collecting donated goods has been purchased and there is a long lease on the warehouse.
The latest innovation has been the adoption of a showroom format to tastefully display the furniture. In the attached photo David Fallick and Lawrie Mann admire the “showroom”. The RIMERN sommelier, Geoff Widmer, is always available with advice regarding the new wines on offer from the VAN range!
Finally, the sign up list on our website for RIMERN has been expanded from four to six. So please consider volunteering. It’s always a fun time interspersed with a useful contribution or two.
