Rose Scott Women Writers' Festival
THE ROSE SCOTT WOMEN WRITERS' FESTIVAL AT THE WOMEN'S CLUB 8-9 OCTOBER 2021 The generous financial contribution from our Supporter Program ensures the success and ongoing viability of the Festival and the participation of leading writers and moderators. We hope you will continue to support us, or do so for the first time, particularly in the current situation when writers need more than ever to have the opportunity to talk about their books and meet their readers. Building on the success of our virtual author interviews, this year’s Festival will be a hybrid face-to-face and virtual event in this period of social distancing. Audience numbers at the Club will be very limited due to social distancing requirements and we are offering our sponsors the benefit of access to the face-to-face Festival. Should the public health situation deteriorate, we may have to reconsider the face-to-face aspect of the Festival.

WESLEY COLLEGE SIDINDA HEALTH CLINIC FUNDRAISER
Wesley College Clunes Program - Communities Rotation - students will engage in a Fundraising Appeal to raise money for Sidinda Health Clinic Zimbabwe. Wesley College has supported the community for many years. Our aim is to send a sea container full of supplies for health and education - funds are needed to purchase items and also for the cost of the voyage of the sea container that will remain in Zimbabwe. This will cost $15,000 to send but will contain items unavailable in Zimbabwe and items that if purchased in Africa would cost around $100,000, and will help their health clinics, schools and the remote communtiy with resources to thrive. Students will complete a physical challenge walking the distance a Sidinda local walks to school or health care (10km) and learn about helping those far away they may never meet. Families can assist by drumming up donations by shaing this link towards our appeal. As an Australian registered charity - a tax receipt will be forwarded.
