Throughout the world, Rotary Foundation funds improvements in health, supports education and helps to alleviate poverty.
One of the main projects spearheaded by Rotary Foundation is the eradication of Polio through its support of a global vaccination programme. From a staggering 125 polio endemic countries in 1988, Rotary's efforts have helped to reduce this to just two Pakistan and Afghanistan.
The work of Rotary begins in the community, and every community has its own unique needs and concerns.
Rotary focuses efforts in six key areas to maximise impact. These areas encompass some of the world’s most critical and widespread humanitarian needs, and Rotary has a proven record of success in addressing them.
1. Peace and Conflict Resolution
2. Disease Prevention and Treatment
3. Water and Sanitation
4. Maternal and Child Health
5. Basic Education and Literacy
6. Economic and Community Development
7. Supporting the Environment
