Rotary Malaria Vaccine Project.
Cooroy Rotary has repatriated a total 135kg of coins and notes which equates to a donation value of $12,000 to the Rotary Malaria Vaccine Project. Not bad for otherwise worthless bits of metal and paper hidden away forgotten in drawers!
Imagine if by 2028 we have a game changing proven vaccine and that by 2033 it could be rolled out to the countries that need it most. For the past 10 years Griffith University, in partnership with Rotary, has been developing a vaccine candidate that could make this a reality.
Our thanks and gratitude go to all the Bendigo Bank branches and especially our local branch in Cooroy for facilitating the money collection boxes and for all the travellers donating left-over currency.

The Rotary Western Queensland Flood Appeal was more than a response; it is a blueprint for resilience. Last year floodwaters surged through homes and businesses, but help came fast. Rotary District 9620, of which Cooroy is part, and Rotary District 9560 backed by the strength of Rotary Australia World Community Service (RAWCS) and generous Australians nationwide funds were provided to deliver early cash support and emergency accommodation. Twelve families waiting months for permanent repairs were provided with safe shelter and there are more plans ahead.
