The Rotary Club of Oakville Trafalgar is a local group of men and women who raise money to help those in need in our community and beyond. We raise funds through existing projects like the Oakville Family Ribfest, Wines and Lines and the Rotary Online Auction. Through our education awards we actively encourage youth to develop leadership skills and to attend post-secondary education. For the past 30 years we have worked in partnership to provide  our seniors with the annual July Strawberry Social. Within the community we respond to requests for both financial and human resources in an effort to ‘give back’ to Oakville. We have recently begun work with indigenous peoples as well. Internationally we work with Rotary clubs in North America and foreign lands to bring needed resources to their communities.
