In recognition of Rotary - Basic Education and Literacy Month, we are pleased to highlight the "Literacy Alive" project - a collaboration between the Rotary clubs of Red Deer, Alberta (Canada) and San Ignacio (Belize). (click on the link below). The goal is to have all Belizean students to be reading competently by age ten.
Locally, the Rotary Club of Avalon Northeast annually awards the Ross Reccord Memorial Scholarship to one student from Holy Spirit High School and one student from Queen Elizabeth Regional High School. Rotary's goal is to strengthen the capacity of communities to support basic education and literacy, reduce gender disparity in education, and increase adult literacy.
