Rotary's "Cans for Christmas" project is one of its annual Community Programs when Christmas food donations are collected on behalf of Foodbank WA for packaging and distribution to vulnerable Western Australians.
Your local Rotary Clubs are working together with Foodbank WA to collect Cans and Non-Perishable Packaged Food for vulnerable Western Australians between 8am to 1pm on Saturday 5 December 2020.

Financial donations are welcome and may be made direct to Foodbank WA with donors asked to go to "Donate $" and insert "Rotary" in the message line. Reminder that donations of $2.00 and over are tax deductible.
