I joined Rotary in 2007 after hosting a young boy who came to Australia for heart surgery. In Rotary I immediately became involved in RAWCS as I had already been travelling overseas doing International development work and humanitarian service projects. In 2010 I established a charitable foundation, Pink Umbrella Foundation to provide governance and funding to the international development work. Currently I am the RAWCS Eastern Region Project Coordinator. I ensure RAWCS project managers met governance requirements for the tax deductible status RAWCS has. I am aware of criteria of working in developing countries having established a charitable foundation. I travel regularly overseas to various countries, working on sustainable development projects. Part of my role in RAWCS is supporting Rotarians working in developing countries and keeping them across regulations from our government.
