Taking Action

The program helps participants to become more comfortable in a social setting and improves independent living skills.
Rotary Responds 
Rotary clubs play an important role in their communities and adapt quickly to meet changing needs, whatever the circumstances. ​

Water, Sanitation and Hygiene

Providing Access to Clean Water
When people have access to clean water and sanitation, waterborne diseases decrease, children stay healthier and attend school more regularly, and mothers can spend less time carrying water and more time helping their families.

Youth Exchange


Environment

Planting Agroforestry
Members of the Rotary Club of Maceió-Farol, Brazil (D4391), work with farmers on the Planting Agroforestry project.
