Northside Trivia for Youth Homelessness

On the 13th August 2020, members of the Rotary Club of Southbank, and our satellite club of Southbank Orbit joined the Rotary Club of Northside for their trivia night. It was a night of fun and laughs with prizes for the best dress-up and a well organised trivia competition with all proceeds going to Steps Outreach Service. There were a number of auctions with both Jasmin and Bishan successful in their bids including some Tupperware, which Jasmin donated back to the Steps Outreach Service.

Anne Mitchell, manager of Steps Outreach Service (and also a member of the Rotary Club of Carlton) spoke to us between rounds about First Steps and some of their projects and the support that they provide for the homeless. During Covid they continue to provide support to the homeless by ensuring they have accommodation and food and also through virtual connection.  They are doing some amazing work Check out their story here 

Our team name was 'Lockdown Lovers 2.0' and we started off strong but got a little stumped on the movie round so didn't take home the crown. It was however a lot of fun and a great way to connect virtually with other clubs. Some of questions had us needing to be creative with our answers!

Over $2000 was raised in total for the Steps Outreach Service which is fantastic. You can still donate to the cause here
