Growing Local Economies

Home Growing Local Economies

Nearly 800 million people live on less than $1.90 a day. Rotary members are passionate about providing sustainable solutions to poverty.

Our members and our foundation work to strengthen local entrepreneurs and community leaders, particularly women, in impoverished communities.
We provide training and access to well-paying jobs and financial management institutions.

 

HOW ROTARY MAKES HELP HAPPEN

We create opportunities to help individuals and communities thrive financially and socially.

Microloans

Entrepreneurs use microloans to become street vendors, rickshaw drivers, weavers, and tailors.

 

The Power of Light

Rotary members team up with the Navajo Nation to bring solar lights to remote, off-the-grid homes, allowing people to work and learn at night.

 

Training

Rotary International and Heifer International are teaching farmers to extend their growing season and help residents eat healthier, local food.

 

Human Rigts

Rotary helps Tanzanians with albinism overcome stigma and superstition to find safety and a livelihood.

 

Adopt a Village

Rotary members use a multifaceted and coordinated strategy to break the cycle of poverty in extremely impoverished communities.

 

Agricultural Opportunities

Entrepreneurs in rural communities can borrow money to buy livestock or plant crops, or get training in sustainable farming.

 

OUR IMPACT ON LOCAL ECONOMIES

Rotary members train people to become resources for their community, offering networking activities, advice on new business development, and mathematics and financial management training.

Our Mission

We provide service to others, promote integrity, and advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace through our fellowship of business, professional, and community leaders.
