Bicester Rotary Club works with communities overseas, often through the Rotary Foundation

The mission of The Rotary Foundation is to enable Rotarians to advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace through the improvement of health, the support of education, and the alleviation of poverty. The Foundation is a not-for-profit corporation supported solely by voluntary contributions from Rotarians and friends of the Foundation who share its vision of a better world.

Bicester has a population of 30,000.

That is the number of children under the age of five who die every day worldwide from preventable causes. Together, we can make a difference.
