Rotary International is probably the most effective charity in the world.
We do not throw money at problems; we prefer to provide long term solutions to them.
And we do not waste money on 'overheads' or 'administration'; all the proceeds we collect go to the charities and other good causes we support.
Below is a list of some of them we have supported in the last few years.
- 2nd and 3rd Goostrey Guides
- Age Uk
- Alzheimer's Society,
- Brook Street Chapel
- Childline
- Christies (Youth Oncology Unit)
- East Cheshire Hospice
- Jaipur Limbs
- KHS PTA

- Shelter Box
- Children's Liver Disease
- Welcome Cafe
- Egerton Njoro Project
- The Children's Burns Foundation
- Francis House Children's Hospice

and many more, all started by Rotary Foundation.
