Challenge To Lead Program

Challenge to Lead Program

Thursday 10th to 12th October 2019

How many sausage sizzles do you need to earn $500?

The Rotary Club of Doncaster is seeking referrals from District Clubs for participants in their Challenge to Lead Program. With each successful referral, the RC of Doncaster will pay the referring club $500. That's a lot of sausage sizzles!

 

Why?

Throughout the District there is a pool of contacts and potential participants in management and professional positions who would either benefit themselves or recommend others who would benefit from the Program. It's an easy fund raiser for a Club.

There is a high demand for good leadership. It is a must-have capability for any individual or organisation wanting to get ahead in the world and achieve and earn more.Leadership can be taught, learnt and developed and this course will help in this regard.

 

What is it?

The Challenge to Lead Program is a 3-day residential leadership program run by the Rotary Club of Doncaster on 10th, 11th and 12th October, 2019.

The Program is delivered pro bono by dedicated professional facilitators including the former Director of HR for HP and Telstra, a Senior Fellow Melbourne Business School, an advisor to Mt Eliza MBA program and a Principal Fellow of the Melbourne University Business School.

Since 2014, Challenge to Lead participants have come from a wide range of organisations including local government, multinational companies, not for profits (NFPs), statutory authorities and small to medium sized businesses (SMEs) and the program received many ringing endorsements.

Rotarians Against Malaria
 
ROTARIANS AGAINST MALARIA
[RAM]
 
Mosquitoes are the deadliest creatures on our planet.  Malaria is spread by mosquitoes.  Malaria causes over 400,000 deaths each year. Sadly 470 children under 5 die each day. 3.2billion people are at risk. Do you know the symptoms?
 
Funds are needed to continue the work of Rotarians Against Malaria in PNG, the Solomon Islands and Timor Leste.  In 2019 -20 RAM are implementing malaria elimination programs in Vanuatu with the World Health Organisation.
 
Our District fundraising target is $20,000 this year.  We seek a $500 pledge from each Rotary Club to help save lives.
Individual donations are tax deductible. Donations can be made via www.rawcs.ram.com.au
 
Do you like to travel?  You could be at risk. The Malaria carrying mosquito thrives in a tropical climate
