"Mount Martha Rotary is a group of dedicated volunteers who believe in service above self and building community. We are involved in a diverse range of activities that strive to improve life for others."
Tori Norris shared some of the incredible history and current activities of the Mount Martha House Community Centre and generously acknowledged Rotary Mount Martha in her message.

Rotary Mount Martha donations
This week we received the Community Bank Mount Martha sponsorship of $2,500 to cover the outgoings on our Village BBQ's. This arrangement allows us to receive donations from our sausage sizzle sales with costs covered by this sponsorship. We thank the Community Bank Mount Martha for their generous and ongoing support.
We were also delighted to learn that we were successful in obtaining a $5,000 Mornington Peninsula Shire Community Support Grant for our Mount Martha Village Christmas and Easter Community Gatherings. We thank the Mornington Peninsula Shire for the generous support again this year.
