- Promoting Peace
- Supporting Education/Literacy
- Providing Clean Water
- Saving Mothers and Children
- Fighting Disease
- Growing Local Economies
Promoting Peace
Rotary is a humanitarian organization, which means they oppose conflict of any type and work to resolve any conflicts that arise. Members take action to find the underlying causes of a variety of different types of conflict, such as poverty, discrimination, and racial tension.
Saving Mothers and Children
Rotary makes sure that high-quality healthcare is readily available to mothers and children, which allows them to live a healthy, strong life. Rotary provides immunizations, aid kits, and mobile health clinics. Women are taught how to prevent disease in themselves and their children. Rotary has a variety of grants that can be used to provide life-saving medical equipment to those who need it most.
Supporting Education/Literacy
17% of the world’s population is illiterate. Rotary supports basic education and literacy by lowering gender disparity and increasing literacy programs. Rotary provides mentoring opportunities for children, teacher training, and adult literacy programs.
Fighting Disease
400 million people in the world don’t have access to basic health care. Rotary makes health care possible for those in need. Rotary members work to treat and eradicate diseases such as malaria, HIV/AIDS, Alzheimer’s, MS, diabetes, and polio. In addition to providing health care, Rotary provides health care education.
Providing Clean Water
With accessible clean water, people have more time to spend with their families, diseases decrease, and children become healthier. Rotary makes this possible through water and sanitation programs.
Growing Local Economies
Rotary provides training and access to jobs and financial management institutions. This helps local economies sustain growth, and reduces poverty.
