Club members attended the Donations in Kind (DIK) open day on 10 August in West Footscray. A non-descript grey warehouse building indistinguishable from other warehouses on the site, identified only by a relatively small Rotary wheel at its from entrance. Visitors were greeted with the enticing smell of a sausage sizzle.

From there, a number of tours were busy explaining its purpose walking along what appeared to be a never-ending row of racks, labelled with each carefully stacked with the largest variety of donated goods (as pictured) for Rotary clubs for their local and international projects. These donated goods are more often brand new or otherwise of excellent quality from Melbourne well-known businesses, sporting bodies, hospitals, other medical groups, aged care, the corporate sector and government and non-government schools etc.

Entirely run by volunteers, the re-purposing facility rehomes goods that would otherwise go to landfill while transforming the lives of individuals who would otherwise not have access to these goods.

As at 30 June 2024, DIK West Footscray has shipped 708 containers of equipment and supplies containing goods worth $76 million to 36 countries and administrative regions, with a strong emphasis on items that will improve education, medical and maternal care. It has also supported disadvantaged people of the Australian local community.

Rotary Camberwell has supported the work of DIK for many years. The club has implemented a number of international projects sending much needed medical educational supplies.
