A special meeting will be held at the Strathearn administration block in Stafford Street, Scone, on Monday, March 20.
The group is desperately looking for more members to play an active role in fundraising efforts within the community so it can continue providing much-needed equipment for the residents of Strathearn aged care.
President Yvonne McCready said it would be disappointing if the organisation was forced to fold.
“We have helped give them plenty of equipment over the years including beds, mattresses and wheelchairs,” she said.
“It makes the job a lot easier for staff if they’ve got those things.
“But, unless new members are willing to support Friends of Strathearn, it might be necessary to disband our group.
“It would be sad it that happens.”
The group urges those interested in joining to attend the upcoming meeting, which starts at 2pm.
