Contribute to RCV
Support the Activities of the
Rotary Club of Victoria-Saanich
Support for the club (RCVS) and Rotary International are at the following links:
Members can use link (1) to pay lunch charges, membership fees, Happy Bucks, Recognition Fines, fees for other club events and donations to the Club Foundation.
Donations to eliminate polio (Rotary International End Polio Now) and to the Rotary International Foundation can be made by club members and the general public at link (2)
Even during COVID 19 times, while we are not meeting physically there are ways members may contribute to the RCV so we can continue our charitable activities as usual.
Members are on the HONOUR SYSTEM - pay monthly to avoid small dollar transactions:
- Keep track of your Happy/Sad Bucks
- Graciously accept the fines meted out by our infamous Directors of Recognition
- Consider paying the equivalent of one lunch fee ($30) per month to support our outreach activities
All contributions to support the activities of the RCVS are welcome.
Each year the RCVS supports the following activities:
- Victoria-wide & Esquimalt High School Scholarships
- Vancouver Island Regional Science Fair
- BC Children's Hospital – Festival of Trees
- 1000 x 5 Literacy Program
- Camosun Bursary Fund
Other significant grants are made to worthy charities from monies derived from our Rotary-90 Foundation and fund-raising efforts throughout the year. In 2021-23 we supported the following groups:
- $10,000 - Forklift at Mustard Seed Food Distribution Centre
- 2 x $10,000 - Rotary Educational Pursuits Program at the Threshold Housing Society
- $15,000 - Science and Arts Programs at Esquimalt High School
