We ARE People of ACTION and as a club, we ARE Serving to CHANGE LIVES!
On September 18th we gathered to clean up our local Watershed together with the Town Environmental Committee.
On September 25th we worked together with Newark Neighbours and collected Food for the Food Bank.
On October 2nd we participated in the Participate for Polio Event to raise money and awareness to eradicate Polio forever.
Our August 25th Golf tournament raised money to support the Niagara Nursery School and Child care Centre which is now up and running providing care to even more families. The NIA Freedom to Stand prosthetics project, also supported by the Golf Tournament, has now moved into an active project with confirmation of a Rotary International Global Grant of $115,491.00. This project, in coordination with the Rotary Cub of Calgary Centennial and the Rotary Cub of Capital City will change children’s lives in Sri Lanka providing the gift of Prosthetic limbs.
Along with this, our club has obtained the news that we have earned the Rotary Citation Award for 2020-2021. The purpose of the Rotary Citation is to increase Rotary club involvement in service activities, while at the same time encouraging Rotarians' personal involvement in serving others and promoting a high standard of Rotary service in the community.
CONGRATULATIONS to all of our members. Thank you, to those who have taken a leadership role to bring these opportunities to serve to fruition.
To learn more about Rotary, and how you can help, please reach out to your Club Executive.
