Your support has allowed us to raise $12,000 in 2021.  Rotary will use this money to support the less fortunate both locally and internationally. Due to COVID-19, the need is even greater than usual. Some examples of the projects our club has supported are;
  • Supporting food security through Food Banks in Oakville and across Halton.
  • Providing Covid equipment for OTMH and PPE for several local charities.
  • Funding the annual Oakville Rotary Education awards with the other Rotary clubs in Oakville
  • Providing Educational Scholarships for Indigenous students
  • Providing safety and support for women and children Halton Women's Place,.
  • Feeding the hungry in Guatemala and Honduras during Covid and supporting job training.
  • Assisting with educational supplies for an elementary school in Guatemala.
  • Providing medical equipment for a clinic in Guatemala that serves the poor and trains medical staff.
  • Helping to send new and used soccer gear to impoverished children and youth overseas.
  • Supporting Rotary’s Polio Plus program to eradicate polio worldwide.
 Rotary is always looking for new members. We have 4 clubs in Oakville (meeting in the morning, noon, and evening) and we all continue to have zoom meetings. You are always welcome to attend any meeting to see what we are all about! Check out the website rotaryoakville.ca
 
Many thanks again for your support!
