World Rotaract Week 2023
Every year March 13 is celebrated as World Rotaract Day. The purpose behind celebrating this day is to recognize the service provided by rotaractors throughout the world. The Rotary organization is one of the largest networks of volunteers working for the betterment of the community. The theme of World Rotaract Day 2023 is “Create Hope in the World”. The world Rotaract Week will also be celebrated between 13 March and 19 March

March is

Water, Sanitation and Hygiene Month

Our Club's Impact
Chirasauta Water Project.  In 2015, we agreed to work with Dr Zephania Matanga (Cdn Multicultural Disabilities Institute) to help bring water to his remote village of Chirasauta in south eastern Zimbabwe. Potable  water has been provided to 10,000 people. Funds were raised by schools in Manitoba to  drill a borehole, install a solar-driven pump and install a tank from which the residents of Chirasaiuta as well as people from several neighbouring villages were able to draw their water. Subsequently, we  installed 2 more holding tanks, one at the school and another at the site designated for the construction of a clinic. The clinic, funded by the community is now fully operational and serves the population of many villages in the area. The easy availability of water has also enabled the community to grow a substantial amount of food.
 
Toilet Facilities in Kwazulu Natal  Without proper toilet facilities girls do not attend school regularly.  We partenered with  the Rotary Club of Hillcrest in Kwazulu-Natal, SA to construct proper toilet facilities and hand washing stations for 400  girls and boys in one of their neighbouring schools. There was a significant increase in the attendance of girls after the construction of the new toilet facilities.
 
Makaphutu Children’s Village Rain Water Harvesting  A few years ago, with the dry season getting longer, the water supply was shut off for several hours a day. We assisted to install a rain water harvesting system complete with a sophisticated water purification system. There is now an uninterrupted supply of clean water for the  200 children and adults 24 hours a day.
 
Survival Gardens Project  Easy Transport of water, supply of seeds and tools and training has impacting 767 families in four provinces of South Africa.  The average size of these families is 7, meaning that our work has benefited close to 5,400 people!

Way to Go Rotary Club

Diversity Equity and Inclusion

At Rotary, we're committed to treating everyone with dignity and respect, allowing everyone's voice to be heard, and providing equitable opportunities for fellowship, service, and leadership.

Our members want and expect Rotary to be a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organization. We're committed to creating supportive environments that foster open communication and shared learning. And although the Rotary experience may differ from country to country, the dynamics, histories, and structures that create inequality and bias can be found all over the world. Issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion are globally relevant.

Our Mission: "To create community through fellowship and service, to eliminate poverty and disease and to provide knowledge and opportunity, especially for young people."
 
Our Vision: "Being an exemplary club in meeting its mission, through a sustainable vibrant membership."
