Hello Magical Hay Hero Rotarians!

 It has been a while since I’ve provided an all points update to D9510 Clubs on our collective efforts to raise money to buy Fodder to save SA Farmers’ livestock!

 I’m blown away by our Network’s response, by donating their hard earned $’s … THANK YOU

 • Rotary clubs
• Rotaract clubs  
• Inner Wheel clubs (including one from Rome, Italy!)  

And beyond our own generous Rotary Network – we’ve had Businesses; Community Groups; Church Groups; Councils; Politicians and MANY members of the public who have also generously Donated - $352,000 in total to date! 

Mental Health support has been bandied around by Federal and State Government in the media a lot of late. But I can tell you, of all the farmers we’ve supported and talk to on a daily basis, they clearly state that Rotary’s effort to supply feed for their Sheep and Cows is the BEST form of Mental Health support they can get right now.

 Our Social Media feed is filled with heart felt messages of praise for our collective efforts.

 Since We Started Delivering Hay on 24 February 2025

Kai Martin raises more than $50,000 for local domestic violence services

Can we give a Big Thanks and Community Recognition to this young man, Kai Martin.

On the 23rd of May Kai Martin gave an amazing gift to his Murray Bridge Community.

He ran the Lavender Federation Trail, a 325 km ( approximately 202 miles ) trek  from Clare to Murray Bridge - All to raise funds for Domestic Violence. 

Kai is an inspiring young man who works with underprivileged kids and their families and has always been aware of Domestic Violence with a need to do something about it.  His gift was running and setting a goal of raising $25,000.

Incredibly, Kai pushed himself so hard over 3 days - he was delirious when he arrived back at his home town in the early hours at 3am on Monday morning. But he had smashed his fundraising goal, netting more than $50,000 – and possibly much more – for local domestic violence support services.

Senior Community Constable Derek Mattner joined Kai at the 150km mark, running 130km through freezing conditions and challenging terrain. Kai expressed his gratitude, stating Derek’s support was crucial to the run’s success.

Support Our Farmers

Rotary Australia World Community Service is assisting affected communities of the Western Victoria and South Australian Drought region through the network of local Rotary Clubs and in collaboration with local support agencies 

Western Victoria & South Ausralia has been severely impacted by drought with farming land dry and barren and livestock feed and water running out fast.

Beyond livestock feed, the impact of the drought with the heartbreaking hardships the farming families themselves are facing as they watch their animals deteriorate. Mental health issues are often paramount. Some families themselves go without to ensure their livestock survive. This RAWCS project intends to raise funds to support humanitarian relief projects for those impacted in the drought affected regions.

RAWCS Drought Relief for South Australia Farmers & Livestock Fund

This fund was established in late February and has already provided a significant number of hay bales /livestock feed to farmers in the Mid North and West Coast of SA.   Continued support for SA farmers and their livestock is desperately needed.
