Rotary Quota gives back to the community

On the occasion of the 4th anniversary of the Rotary Club of Paramaribo Quota on June 7, 2025, the club gives back to society through its annual "Small Projects" initiative. On June 5, they made donations at “De Waag” to several institutions that work daily for target groups that Rotary Quota has been working for years. Thanks to the generous proceeds of the Quota Men Cook Out (QMCO) in November last year, Rotary-Quota was able to extend a helping hand to several institutions again this year.
In total, an amount of more than USD 37,000 was donated to 18 institutions. Stichting voor het Kind, Stg. Huize Betheljada, Huize Tyltyl, Stg. Running Blind Suriname, Opvang Maarten Luther Kerk, Stg.

Rotary Club of Paramaribo Quota (Rotary Quota) is a service club whose members are committed to socially disadvantaged groups in Suriname. The club is part of the Rotary International network, which consists of more than 46,000 clubs spread across the world. Rotary Quota has been the legal successor to Quota International of Suriname since June 7, 2021, and as such has been committed to its target groups since 1997.
Every year, Rotary-Quota organizes various activities to raise funds to carry out projects for the benefit of its various target groups. Rotary Quota's largest and best-known fundraising activity is the Quota Men Cook Out (QMCO), where men from inside and outside Suriname prepare the most delicious dishes, sell them and then donate the proceeds to Rotary Quota. The proceeds from the fundraising activities are spent on realizing projects for the benefit of the club's target groups, of which children and adults with disabilities, malnourished and neglected children, and senior citizens are some.
