Rotary - Fellowship

In an increasingly complex world, Rotary meets one of our basic needs - the need for friendship. It is one of the two reasons Rotary was founded in 1905. Every Rotary Club and District has fellowship activities that provide a diversion from business life. Conferences, conventions and assemblies also provide good entertainment in addition to information, education and service. Life-long friendships are made and maintained, helped by our traditional practice of weekly meetings around the meal table. What's your passion? Chances are, another Rotarian shares a similar passion, and that you could even turn your passion into something that helps others.Rotary is fun. The people make it an enjoyable experience!

Rotary - Local Projects

Community service is “what Rotary is all about”. Rotary Clubs thrive in most communities around the world as independent organisations focused primarily on their local communities while supporting wider Rotary International and global programs. Local programs are as diverse as the imagination of our members. You’ll find us staffing the gates at the local community market, running the largest art show in the Southern hemisphere (The Herald Sun Camberwell Rotary Art Show), supporting a drought challenged shire, planting trees to protect the local environment… and much more. Rotary Clubs seek “opportunities for service” and take those opportunities for the benefit of their fellow citizens.

Rotary - International Projects

Rotary Clubs seek out opportunities for international service in communities less fortunate than their own. Programs range from building a modest school house in a small village, establishing a well for clean potable water to major multi club programs including:

 

Rotary Oceania Medical Aid for Children (ROMAC)
The ROMAC program reaches out to all children in under-developed countries to bring them to Australia for medical operations that will in some cases save their lives and in other cases restore their bodies and provide them with a dignified future.

 

Donations in Kind (DIK)
Goods and products, for which organisations in Australia have no further use, are valuable commodities in needy countries. It is important that donated goods are limited to items that have been identified as being needed in the country involved, and means of appropriately distibuting them have been established.

 

Interplast Australia

Is a multi-district Rotary program, established in 1983 as a joint venture with the Royal College of Surgeons, which provides expertise in plastic and reconstructive surgery, through voluntary teams of surgeons and nurses, going to South Pacific and South East Asia.

Rotary - Global Projects
As a truly international organisation with approximately 1.2 million Rotarians belonging to more than 32,000 clubs in more than 200 countries and geographical areas, Rotary is dedicated to building goodwill and peace throughout the world. Rotarians carry out humanitarian projects and exchange programs to address such issues as poverty, health, hunger, education and the environment.

Rotary participates in a broad range of humanitarian, intercultural and educational activities designed to improve the human condition. Rotary grants support projects that provide health care and medical supplies, clean water, food, job training, youth development and education to millions of people in need, particularly in the developing world.

Because of its global reach, its total focus on promoting international understanding and its concern for truth, fairness, improved relations between peoples and world peace, Rotary is the only non-governmental organisation to obtain the highest consultative status with the United Nations. In this capacity, Rotary has a voice within the UN system allowing access to its people and worldwide resources.

Known as the world’s largest private provider of international education scholarships, The Rotary Foundation funds more than 1,000 students annually to study overseas and act as cultural ambassadors. Rotary also partners with eight prestigious universities around the globe to educate mid-career professionals in peace and conflict resolution to become tomorrow’s peacemakers.
