What an amazing organization Rotary is! With 1.4 million members in 46,000 Clubs around the world, Rotary has the ability to do amazing work to serve and help communities locally, nationally and internationally. Rotary International President, Stephanie Urchick, wants to highlight the Magic of Rotary in her year. There’s magic as people unite to create sustainable change.

About ShelterBox Canada:
ShelterBox provides shelter, essential items, and technical assistance to help some of the world’s most vulnerable people recover and rebuild their homes after disaster.
They listen and adapt their support to the needs of each community, working together with those affected by disaster, alongside their supporters and partners. Rotary is a key partner to ShelterBox both in Canada and globally.
Thanks to many Ottawa Area clubs for their donations to rebuild the pergola at Rotel. And many thanks to the volunteers who helped build it...especially Phil Powel-Smith who inspired many to take this project on. 
We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude for our members and their family's hard work and dedication during the river cleanup event. Our Earth Day activities included our 1) Great Lakes Watershed cleanup including Rotary's Brewer Park Playground and 2) developing a sustainability information brochure.
This is what 64 years of giving looks like!
