Charity gets a paint make-over

When 17 Rotarians from the Rotary Clubs of Central Melbourne-Sunrise and Melbourne Park agreed to paint the fence at McAuley House, North Melbourne, they didn’t expect the job would need 30 litres of paint.

That’s what it took to paint 60 metres of pickets and palings last month. McAuley House accommodates about 20 homeless women, typically aged 30-50.

Central Melbourne-Sunrise Rotary has been doing working bees there for several years, transforming the gardens and grounds and giving the women outdoor recreation spaces.
