At the recent Colac Volunteer Expo at COPACC, our MERIBA stand was a welcoming space to connect with the community and share more about the work we do. We are proud to celebrate our members and the valuable contribution they make as volunteers across Colac.
Thank you to everyone who stopped by to chat with us! 💙

The Colac & District Family History Group is once again extremely grateful for the continued support of the Meriba Service Club of Colac towards our Almost Forgotten – Pre-1900 Burials project.

Over the past eleven years Meriba has supported this project from the very beginning — from early seed funding that helped us purchase death certificates and begin uncovering forgotten stories, to a generous grant two years ago to assist with obtaining the remaining certificates needed for the research.

Now, as we move into the exciting Virtual Memorialisation stage of the project, Meriba has again offered support, helping fund the recording of stories that will allow visitors to hear the lives and voices behind the graves.

With so many worthy organisations seeking assistance, we never take this support for granted and we sincerely thank the Meriba Service Club of Colac for believing in the importance of preserving our local history and community stories.

Community history survives because communities care enough to support it.
