Our Causes

Our club supports many causes, including local, national, and international. Please read below for more information on what our club, district, and Rotary International support in our mission to change the world.

Promoting Peace

Our members take action to address the underlying causes of conflict, including poverty, discrimination, ethnic tension, lack of access to education, and unequal distribution of resources.

Fighting Disease

Our members combat diseases like malaria, HIV/AIDS, Alzheimer’s, multiple sclerosis, diabetes, and polio. Prevention is important, which is why we also focus on health education and bringing people routine hearing, vision, and dental care.

Providing Clean Water

Through water sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) programs, Rotary’s people of action mobilize resources, form partnerships, and invest in infrastructure and training that yield long-term change.

Saving Mothers & Children

We expand access to quality care, so mothers and children everywhere can have the same opportunities for a healthy future.

Supporting Education

Our goal is to strengthen the capacity of communities to support basic education and literacy, reduce gender disparity in education, and increase adult literacy. We support education for all children and literacy for children and adults.

Growing Local Economies

Rotary members train people to become resources for their community, offering networking activities, advice on new business development, and mathematics and financial management training.

Protecting The Environment

Rotary members are tackling environmental issues the way they always have: by coming up with projects, using their connections to change policy, and planning for the future.

Our Community Partners
