2023 Matching Grants from South Eastman Rotary and Rotary District 5550 were presented in support of the Mennonite Heritage Village Summer Education Programming.
Robert Goertzen, Program Manager thanks the Club and supporters. "74 kids attended during our 5 weeks of day camp, as well as many school and daycare field trips throughout spring and summer."
"Funds presented will be used for supplies, snacks, wagon rides and interpretive costs for activities like blacksmithing, rope making, and butter churning.
Your donation allows us to offer an experiential 5 day camp experience for children of local families, while keeping registration fees as low as possible."
South Eastman Rotary gratefully announces $45,000 raised through this event in support of Physical and Mental Health through two local charities.
Rotarians under construction, donated and installed a new local Little Free Library at Steinbach Family Resource Centre. Partnered with the Centre, and stocked by ROC Eastman Book Fair. Stop by this community literacy corner to find your next read!

Art develops critical life skills like work ethic, critical thinking, collaboration and confidence. The Steinbach Arts Council provides free after school arts programs for youth grades 5-12, along with art classes, theatre/dance/music classes, language and culinary classes, and physical wellness programming. South Eastman Rotary members, alongside SAC leadership believe that experiences in the arts build a person’s ability to acknowledge and understand emotional and psychological experiences, building empathy and understanding, and contributing to the overall mental wellness of those who engage in artistic experiences at the Steinbach Arts Council.
