FAQ

  • Do I need need to be a member of Rotary to do some volunteering?

    No, all are welcome to join us. It is a great way to get involved without any committments and an even better way to get to know Rotary.

  • I only have 2 to 3 hours a month to volunteer, how could I get involved.

    That is great - most of our volunteer activities are short and sweet. Our tree planting outings are typically 3 hours in the morning and a great way to get started volunteering with us. Our Bunnings BBQ run all day but volunteers get rostered on for set time slots.

  • I am a High School students who need service hours

    We love it when young people get involved in volunteering. We are happy to sign your service hour documents for school.

  • Do you do BBQ fundraisers?

    Of course!! The BBQ are a cornerstone of our fundraising activities. We typically run BBQs at Gladesville and Artarmon Bunnings.

  • How much of your funds go towards your causes?

    100% of our funds raised get allocated to projects. Our club is by volunteers who pay for their own travel and expenses.

  • Could I volunteer even if I can only commit to adhoc volunteer activities?

    Yes, we get it. Life is busy and it is hard to committ to regular volunteering sessions. That’s why we have many opportunities like Tree Planting or Gift Wrapping at Christmas Time that do not require long term committments.

  • Which area do you serve?

    Most of our volunteering opportunities are in City of Ryde council area.

  • What should I do if would like to become a member?

    We welcome new members.  If you are community minded, live or work in the Ryde Municipality, and have a soft spot for fellowship, charity and enlightenment, why not contact us and ask about joining.  We are happy to have you drop in on a few meetings to find out more about what we do.  There are no secret handshakes – we don’t need them.  The secret is to give more than you receive.  The secret is to participate.  Rotary is an international network of influential, successful people.  In this age of networking, what better place to call home than your local Rotary Club?
