FOUNDATION & INTERNATIONAL

The Rotary Foundation is Rotary's own charity. It is supported by voluntary contributions from Rotarians and friends of the Foundation and generous charitable donations from the general public who share its vision of a better world.

 

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.

Rotary's charity work has become one of the foremost non-governmental foundations with the educational support programme being the largest private scholarship endowment in the world.

Rotary International works in partnership with many other international charities.  It has devoted much of its time and resources in the last few years to Polio Plus - a gobal campaign to attempt to eradicate polio worldwide.   

In Cambuslang we have supported a large number of international projects including ShelterBox, Wateraid, Mercy Ship, and Mary's Meals.  We also work with smaller charities like the Kaloko Trust by sponsoring a school class in Zambia and the locally based Classrooms for Malawi.

For a number of years we also ran our very own Bras for Africa project.
