Australian Rotary Health
Concept
Australian Rotary Health is Australia's largest non-government funding body of mental illness research. We also fund research in other health related areas.
The genesis of Australian Rotary Health in 1981 was the mystery of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). The Late Ian Scott, from the Rotary Club of Mornington, established Australian Rotary Health to support research into SIDS. As Australian Rotary Health grew so did the vision of medical research possibilities. Supported by Rotarians Australian wide, Australian Rotary Health was soon in a position to sponsor health research in areas that did not readily attract funding.
Australian Rotary Health has a broad vision of health. We are a catalyst for projects that improve the quality of life for people who are least able to assist themselves.
Donations In Kind (DIK) is the program whereby Rotarians and Rotary Clubs source surplus goods and products within Australia that have no further use here and provide them to regions which can utilise them.
Rotary's Donations In Kind program provides a central coordination point for storage, packing and dispatch of goods for local and international efforts, minimising the costs associated with getting goods to where they are needed in the world.
If you have quantities of goods, equipment or products that you no longer need but that could be utilised by others in need, please make contact with Donations In Kind. Your contribution could make a big difference in someone's life somewhere in the world.
