People of Action
Our club offers opportunities for our members – and those interested in making a difference – to get involved. Through meetings, social events, and volunteer projects, our members learn about the issues facing our community and communities all over the world, partnering with local, national and global experts to exchange ideas about potential solutions and to draw up action plans to respond. Along with these opportunities to serve, members also are able to regularly network, resulting in lifelong friendships and business connections.
Our club is a proud part of this community and of Rotary international. Rotary is a global network of more than 1.2 million members who believe that great things happen when dedicated minds come together. We are community and business leaders representing different professions, experiences, and perspectives but with a shared desire to connect with others to address the challenges affecting our community and communities around the world.
Making a Difference
Solving real problems takes real effort, commitment and vision. Rotarians work to protect communities from preventable disease, keep women and children healthy, improve education and economic outcomes, create safe water and sanitation infrastructure and make our community and the world a more peaceful place.
We are working with various partners on the following projects:
! Parakai School Fruit Orchard Regeneration – We will be sourcing and planting 30+ fruit trees
! Parakai School Fruit Orchard Education Programme – We will help teach children how to care for their fruit trees and process their harvests.
! Helensville Santa Parade – We will be working with current organisers to help organise and run the 2017 Santa Parade.
! A working bee for the new Kaukapakapa Playground
! Preparing and Serving at the Helensville Community Christmas Dinner
We are always on the look out for more community projects that need volunteers or investments.
