The Winnipeg Downtown club is an international partner in two new Global Grant projects:
 
1. In partnership with Rotary Club of Hillcrest in South Africa, we will provide safe, clean water for sanitation and drinking purposes at the Lily of the Valley Children’s Village in KwaZulu-Natal province in South Africa which takes in and cares for orphans and vulnerable children. This will involve drilling a borehole and installing pumps and storage tanks.
 
 
2. In partnership with Rotary Club of Chittagong, Bangladesh, we will provide quality education for adolescent Rohingya refugees from Myanmar, living in the world’s largest refugee camp. (click the picture to see more images)
 
 
 
3. Our club’s Honouring Indigenous Peoples committee is engaged in initiatives to partner Winnipeg schools with their counterparts in northern First Nations communities to learn from them as well as provide requested assistance in various forms such as books, and sports equipment.
