Literacy for Life - RCW Satellite Club (page under construction)
Welcome to a New Way of Giving Back
Independent Spirit, Global Backing
As a satellite club of the Rotary Club of Wellington, we enjoy the best of both worlds. We operate with complete independence to launch our own grassroots projects, while instantly benefiting from the trusted reputation, deep resources, and worldwide fellowship of the established Rotary network.
Based in South Wairarapa, we are actively searching for new projects where our collective skills can do the most good. As our initiatives grow, so does our need for passionate people. By expanding our membership, we can extend our services deeper into the wider region and beyond.
Get Involved Today

Vision
Empowering Through Literacy
We are a cause-based club dedicated to uplifting our community through the power of knowledge and skills. Our volunteers offer diverse expertise—from teaching foundational reading and math to helping with domestic skills, navigating government systems, and mastering job hunts. If you have a skill to share, we have a place for you to make an impact.
Method
Flexible, Modern, and Focused
We do things differently. We skip rigid traditions to focus entirely on action. Our team meets informally at least once a month to drive our projects forward, blending casual in-person catch-ups with online access. Because we embrace virtual collaboration, you can join our mission and connect with us from anywhere in the country.
Current Projects
Need in Local Schools
Strong communities start with confident young readers. We have been actively consulting with local schools to identify exactly where support is needed most. We are currently rolling out a targeted reading mentorship programme to help students boost their literacy skills, build self-esteem, and unlock their full potential.
Social Crust Charity
True literacy means having the skills to navigate daily life confidently. We are proud to partner with Social Crust—the charity operating the Martinborough and Greytown Foodbanks. Together, we are building a programme designed to walk alongside foodbank clients. Our goal is to provide the tools, coaching, and advocacy needed to overcome life obstacles and reclaim independence..

Meet Our Club Members
Our Satellite Club has just been made a full Satellite Club of the Rotary Club of Wellington. This means we are RCW members, but can run our own 'satellite' club. This helps us maintain our mana, good financial, ethical and project management processes, and we can lean on the expertise and resources of RCW and the wider Rotary organisation.
