Why Rotary? We build peace. Each year, armed conflict and persecution displace, injure, or kill millions of people. More than 90 percent of them are civilians,... and half are children. Rotary projects provide training that fosters understanding and provides communities with the skills to resolve conflicts. Our members are taking action to address the underlying causes of conflict, including poverty, inequality, ethnic tension, lack of access to education, and unequal distribution of resources. Giving Tuesday happens once a year, but your gift of Rotary will make a difference for a lifetime. This Giving Tuesday, consider making a special gift to The Rotary Foundation and together we can continue Doing Good in the World. my.rotary.org/en/donate #rotary7070 #whyrotary #peace #givingtuesday
