When disasters such as earthquakes, typhoons or floods occur around the world we are always quick to respond to help. We do this by raising funds to purchase survival kits such as ShelterBoxes, AquaBoxes and Water Survival Boxes which provide basic essentials needed in an emergency situatio.
Each year our local schools help us pack shoeboxes full of lovely things to make Christmas magical for socially vulnerable families and disadvantaged children in Eastern Europe.
Through "Lend with Care" we support the development of small businesses with small financial loans.
Continuing our work in support of Rotary Foundation to eradicate the globe of Polio remains a high priority, and we are so close to achieving this important goal.
Working in partnership with the Rotary Club of Nantes sur Loire, with whom we are twinned, we supported their Global Grant application to fund a project targeting child victims of domestic violence.
One of the great things about Rotary is its connections with Rotary clubs in other countries which enable us to work in collaborations that ensure our money goes straight to the point of need. An examples of this are the work we undertook over several years to support the Malibwe school in Tanzania and our continuing support for Rotary Jaipur Limb.
