“There is no way The School of St Jude would have opened without Rotary,” said Gemma Sisia, school founder.
More than 1000 students have completed their secondary education and 97% of St Jude graduates pursue higher education.
When students complete their final Tanzanian high school year they spend 12 months in community service. Many teach at government schools for that year, passing on their education.

Lives are already being saved thanks to the Papua New Guinea Snakebite Partnership, supported by Rotary.

A 4-year-old girl and a 16-year-old boy are among the survivors.

Last year, the partnership delivered 497 vials of antivenom to 40 health facilities across 14 provinces, trained 887 health workers across 13 provinces and visited 52 health facilities.

A ventilator was also provided, which has been used more than 25 times for snakebite victims.

A lightning strike on a single tree sparked a fire that destroyed a Blue Mountains community during the Australian summer of 2019-2020.
108 buildings in Bell, Clarence and Dargan were lost.
From the ashes, disaster was transformed into something exceptional, thanks to the help of Rotary.
The Association of Bell, Clarence and Dargan (ABCD), with a population of around 328, was formed and obtained Rotary grants to rebuild a better community hall.

Fighting Disease

Fighting Disease

Our region is no stranger to health challenges, and Rotary is on the frontline. We help communities prevent the spread of diseases like polio, HIV/AIDS, and malaria. Through education, equipment, and access to healthcare, we’re improving lives and expanding low-cost and free health services across the Pacific.

Peacebuilding

Promoting Peace

Rotary promotes meaningful dialogue to foster understanding across diverse communities and cultures. We empower both adults and youth to lead in conflict prevention and resolution, and we support refugees seeking safety from violence. Together, we’re building pathways to peace that resonate across the South Pacific.
