International Service

Rotary Foundation - The Foundation's Humanitarian Programs fund international Rotary club and district projects to improve the quality of life, providing health care, clean water, food, education, and other essential needs primarily in the developing world. One of the major Humanitarian Programs is PolioPlus, which seeks to eradicate the polio virus worldwide by 2005. Our club provides funding to continue the efforts Rotary International.

In addition to support of the larger goal of the Rotary Foundation, we provide financial and volunteer support for these individual programs:

Rotaplast - The Mission of Rotaplast International is to provide free reconstructive surgery and treatment for underprivileged children worldwide, to provide education, and to advance research in the prevention of cleft lip and palate.

Strike Out Hunger Night at the Reading Phillies - Each year the club participates in a worldwide drive to help strike out hunger. We have even garnered the opportunity to sing the national anthem with the Reading Phillies.

Wheelchair Access Program - The mission of this program is to provide wheelchairs to underprivileged individuals worldwide.
