Kyneton is the latest spot to gain a VIEW Club.
VIEW (Voice, Interests, Education of Women) is a national women’s organisation which gives local women the chance to make friends while supporting the education of children and young people experiencing disadvantage.
The Kyneton club is also one of 54 VIEW Clubs throughout the state which support and work with The Smith Family charity.
The Smith Family provides long-term learning support for Australian children and young people in need, and so far Australian VIEW Clubs have raised over $1.3 million for the charity.
The clubs collectively also sponsor over 1800 students on the Learning for Life program.
Outside of fundraising, members also volunteer their time through reading with local children, helping with homework at Smith Family Learning Clubs and mentor students.
Kyenton VIEW Club president-elect Susan Doyle said the club will attract a broad range of women.
“Each VIEW Club is unique and plans its monthly meetings and events to suit the interests and lifestyle of its community-minded members,” she said.
“If you are looking for an opportunity to meet new friends and make connections while supporting Australian children’s education enabling them to create a better future for themselves, then VIEW is an ideal club for you.”
The Kyneton club meets every third Monday of the month at 10.30am for an 11am start. The club meets at The Kyneton Hotel, 98-100 Mollison Street, Kyneton.
